OK, I just have to jump on this eraser thing, because I just read an
email about how much times have changed.

If you ever did drafting work with a lead pencil and an electric eraser
(using a shield), you will understand what Dewey is actually refering
to. A gray number 4 ink eraser stick is not just your normal pencil
eraser. These are the grade we used for removing India Ink applied with
a Leroy Lettering instrument (anyone remember those?) onto velum. This
eraser would go right through the velum if you were not very careful. It
will also be ebrasive enough to go through soldermask. And it will not
take a week.
Your coffee will not even get cold.

How old am I?
At least old enough to have had a great working relationship with Bishop
Graphics and still have an old roll of rubylith in the closet. I can't
even sell that on Ebay.
