Well, may be you are right, but nobody there doesn't use them..

I still use it from time to time.. Probably you too?

It's some kind of nostalgy, isn't it?

By the way, check the percentage - 95:5, not 100:0.. ;))

By the way, there is an empty place for your initials above
the inner slide rule - i think we both did it.. And you did
the most part of job.. ;)

I've changed marker..
