Back before inkjets, printing was a time-comsuming laborious process, that took teams of people working together to produce just one book. Now days, any crabby person can sit at home and crank out stuff on a blog or even make internet video. This movie will make you happy as you watch others toil for 'The Man' under primitive conditions.

Aside from being very interesting (and fun!), I found this video very handy for teaching English: simple, but not too simple grammar, plenty of useful everyday phrases, all pronounced clearly and understandably. It's a great help for my students (and me).

Gee, to think people used to actually get up in the morning, go to work, and do something interesting and worth while. Instead of coddling these spoiled whiny dipshits with their ring tones, iPhones and Blackberries.
