A CD or DVD would have been pure magic.

My dad was deployed to S. Korea back then. The only way we could communicate with him was a letter or by mailing a tape back and forth. It took a couple of weeks to get an answer to a question. A long distance call on the WATTS line would cost hundreds of dollars. I did not hear my dad's voice for over a year.

OK, Moses. I suppose you want me to get off your lawn too?
