how did we make it thru?~

and my school had plenty of computers, even computer courses for those who at that time may have been interested. I was on a computer in high school from '86-'88, learning all there was to know, and thanks to a cool Drafting teached at the vo-tech many of us were ahead of the curve when the internet sprang wide open.

As for me, I could still live without many of the modern 'luxeries' in life (I'm not a cell phone person)
