Or if one could afford it, then there was a little gizmo that sharpened bamboo needles, and played the 78 with that. And the player had a variable speed governor so the music played at A 440! Now, Rael, that was even farther back, and NO! I do not remember when we did not have electricity! You may have had edison, but we had Alexander Grahmam Bell, And look where that got us! All you folk on dial up! Big grin, and to keep this OT I still have peppers growing on two plants(as well as that wasabi root!)Cheers, Doug in BC where we just celebrated our Cdn Thanksgiving! With turkey, yams and chiles!g
