I'm trying to figure out how you figure that learning something new is, as you say, stepping back into the dark ages. Even though we have calculators on our computers, pocket calculators, and other gadgets, a Cranmer abacus is handy at times, even though it is pretty old technology. Learning to use one is not going back to yesterday, but learning something either enjoyable or useful, and how long that tool has been around has nothing to do with how useful it is. I would not disregard it due to how long it has been around. And why get bent out of shape if people show you a flaw in your logic or opinion? They just might be right. If I am thinking incorrectly, and someone points out examples to show me this, I might change my opinion to what makes sense if their arguments are valid. I try to keep an open mind. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael Maslo" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'Gamers Discussion list'" <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, March 23, 2007 7:22 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Montezuma's Revenge News
