I actually thought that was really good. I would definitely like to send that link to other people. The only thing I would change is the part about rollitup.org. As far as the text typing speed, I thought it was fine.

Remember, that was before there were DVDs. People were indeed watching movies in the cinema, and not downloading them online. Imagine the packed seats, the laughter, the excitement, the novelty.

i got bored with the speed too and when i tried to close the tab it offered to just put all the text up at once. that thing went from cool to depressing real quick. i'm the same age as return of the jedi. fuck.

What I disliked (aside from the rate of text appearing ... if anybody spoke to me that slowly my mind would wander) was that it was almost all pop/entertainment culture, a topic that innately bores me. Even some "real news" (Bay of Pigs scandal) was presented as a fricken song lyric!
And was it informative that "pop tech format A through F didn't exist yet"?
Harumph and humbug.
The only factette missing is the people walked to school barefoot in the snow ... and it was uphill both ways. cn

Is it a bad thing when you click on the link it shows the big bang and the beginning of the universe? It's kind of insulting.
