On the Wild, Wild Web, this article in the Times of India tempted me to comment so I did, sending them this comment about it:
Following which, I received this nice reply from their staff:-
Modern communications are vastly different than those of my youth, when I was
delivering a sack full of Toronto Daily Stars each morning before breakfast, and
receiving practically nothing for my efforts. Now, it all happens at computer terminals and I can exchange comments with the staff of the largest English language publication in the world, halfway around the world, and receive a reply
in minutes. When I was a kid fighting off neighborhood dogs to put those papers
on subscribers' doorsteps before breakfast in the mornings, all this would have been considered unbelievable 'science fiction' or pure fantasy.

ReplyDeleteReading this, I was tempted to offer one of my mother-in-law jokes, but maybe I shouldn't ridicule those now in The Great Beyond....
