Times have changed.

Once a little girl, while watching television with her day said “daddy daddy, tell me how when you were a little boy, you had to walk all the way to the television just to change the channel”.


How times change. Remember my dad telling me how he had to walk a long way to school.

Does anyone remember the books in Isaac Asimov's sci fi story "The fun they had". The words moved across the screen and you kept your head/eyes still!

Thanks for the link shooter.

I re met the story again a few years ago, when as a grown up, I was adding volumes to my Asimov collection. I think it appears in ?Martian chronicles.

Duh, I am getting old.
