Your "machine turned" comment reminded me of a conversation I had with an older engineer at work not long ago. He seems to remember back in the 50's/early 60's all the advertising was "space aged materials" and "precision machining" etc, etc.
Now 99% of the stuff out there is machine made and advertising likes to showcase "fine hand craftsmanship" or the like.
Guess when the ad guys run out of ideas, its rinse and repeat
