I don't know, but I will take an old guys word any day. I only go back as far as scrolls, still don't really get on with these folding flippity paged books thinks yet, give me something I can roll out properly.
I tend to keep old dictionaries around for the rare scrabble game. I even had a set of encyclopedias from the 40s just to see how things have changed. Did you know, submarines are diesel powered??

Diesel submarines are, but nuclear submarines are not. Most submarines are driven by electric motors, The diesel or nuclear motor drives a generator, which charges batteries or runs the electric motor, or both at the same time.
