Dean: Mrs. Angelini, were you around during the great depression? Mrs. Angelini: Indeed I was.... Mrs. Angelini:...back then, everybody was poor, even into the war years, and we all helped each other and entertained ourselves... Heart: ...boy, that's weird. I can't even imagine a time before "facebook." Mrs. Angelini: Yeah, a very strange time...if we wanted to talk to someone, we talked to them.
