I remember literally dozens of the old ones - my aunts' and uncles' phone
numbers, my dad's workplaces, my workplaces, friends' homes and so on but
just about 9 of the  bunch of numbers I currently contact.

Things I used to do but no longer need to-
1. Running to reference libraries to check things. I remember going to
Bombay's British Council Library to find out what a certain heat treatment
specification for a part we were making actually entailed. We didn't have
anything to do with it. The heat treatment was to be done by the heat
treatment company. I just wanted to know what the devil it meant. This
required a whole day. It takes just seconds on a cell phone now
2. Making engineering drawings on sheets of paper, on a drawing board, with
drafters and Tee squares.
