Reading a paperback in the bath for the first time in a few years (Ken MacLeod's
_Beyond the Hallowed Sky_) where they are looking condescendingly at Jenkins's
Huawei 7G phone - I keep looking up to the page header to see if it's 7 o'clock
yet. The time should be up there next to the page number...

Cheers, David Duffy

The bit in Asimov's "The Fun They Had" where
the future-world kids find a n actualbook and
try to see how you make it go.
