      Yeah I read a 30 year old newspaper a while back and it was like super high latency internet. Message board, posts, replies to posts, personals etc. None of that stuff makes it into newspapers anymore…

        Newspapers? Depends who you ask

        Jokes aside, I am not talking about the “write the editor” sections we see now. I am saying they’d use it like GOOGLE. You’re not going to see someone ask “what’s 32,344 divided by 7?” Or “who is the senator of idaho” In the new yorker.
