Before the Internet

My children were all born in the '90s, so they have no concept of life before the internet. It was different. If two people had a disagreement, it would have to simmer until the library opened tomorrow or the TV schedule came in the newspaper. We had to call a phone number to find out what the temperature was. And we carried clocks on our wrists! It was a strange time, kids. But not nearly as strange as the 1950s, before they invented color. Comic by Randall Munroe of xkcd.
