- This has concerned me for some time. Not negatively, since I was an
- awful typist (on a typewriter) and spent many hours re-typing pages
- with an error or two. So I love word processing.

- But I have noticed that so much is desktop published today. Even a
- personal letter, with a graphic, or when font programs are used, the
- whole thing is a graphic. Perhaps in a few years, it will all be
- such second nature to us that we won't even think about it. I suspect
- that will be the case.
