They Might Not Know

The youth of today may not know our phones used to be plugged into walls and never went in cars, pockets or purses. The youth of today may not know the nightly news was never given to us unless the facts and the sources were verified. The youth of today may not know we heard the star-spangled banner at midnight on our grayscale TV sets and knew it was time to go to bed.

Nope, they don't, and they never will. They have never seen a "test pattern," and they've never experienced a "party line." Gee, what they missed!
