    While I'll be the first to acknowledge that the 21st Century has brought us some impressive technological advancement, we've clearly lost ground with some amazing technology of the past.
    Here's a salient example:

    As a response of sorts to Nietzsche above (or perhaps a corollary), one is reminded of Schweitzer.

    So -- we were down in Concord, NH yesterday to watch our granddaughter play soccer*
    When we parked at the fields, I was quite taken aback, and even given to some Old Line State nostalgia, by this interesting Jeep that was also parked there.

    ^^^ I believe it’s a late 40’s Packard, replying to Pit.

    Given the license plate, I am guessing it's a '50.
    I took (tried to take) a photo of the back, but... well... me and camera phones. :blush:

    FWIW, here is the aforementioned attempt to photograph the Packard's... umm... rump bustle.
    I butchered it. Me and cell phone photos. :#

    ^^^^^^Interesting. The place that manufactured that elderly license plate isn't too far away in Conkid. It must be high tech protected alien technology to make them as the building looked like a very secure facility when I've driven by it. :)
