   lol, it has been 45 years since I last did a mimeograph and I can still smell that fluid that made the purple words. Not sure what that says about that stuff.

    I had a history teacher in high school who handed out mimeograph sheets at the beginning of every class. Every Single Class. One of his thumbs was stained purple from running that machine every day. He was probably busting the school’s budget.

    On the old sitcom ‘Barney Miller’, Harris said he could have made a fortune investing in Xerox when first offered but he figured ‘Who would buy a machine when they had carbon paper?’ Hindsight. 20/20.
