Well this old fogey remembers incendary bombs dropped on us in World War 2 by the Germans. Also the prisoner of war camp nearby containing Germans & Italians, who worked by day on the farms & in the forsestry. We also had a windup record player with 98 (I think) records. We had a coal burning range with the oven on the side, but boy the food that came out of it was delicious. This was in England by the way. Also remember the ration books we had, the gas masks we had to carry to school and the first cup of chocolate supplied to us at school, thanks to the generosity of the Americans. Now I have a computer and I have used the old 80 column cards, been through the various mainframe computers from the IBM360..too many to remember at the age of 71 with 72 almost approaching. Now in New Zealand and enjoying our little Greek Orthodox Church mulling over the past with the other old fogies there. Take care everyone & God bless.
