INTERSTELLAR COMMUNICATION
When I was a student at Cal
There were bookstores open at night
Near me I think were Barnes and Noble
Also Moe's
With Cody's not too far away
And don't forget Pegasus
I read books a lot more
Before the age of the internet
Of course back then
I wrote in forms
That could not travel to you
Quite like this

I read this on the comp thread and had to come back over here and let you know how wonderfully refreshing this was. As a college student back in the early 90s, there was nothing like going to the library or to the local book store and sit there an hour or so. Everything now seems to be going by too fast without really slowing down to appreciate these moments. Technology is great, but there's nothing like those times we took for ourselves.
Great piece.
Great piece.

Absolutely. For instance, I literally have no idea how I would do at dating people without the internet. I met my wife through the internet, and every single girlfriend I've had that way except my first wife, whom I met in 1996.
