Being lucky enough to have three out of four of my grandparents till my adulthood is a gift that transcends any ever or since.
What they gave me is the appreciation for the art of conversation. I think with all the immediacy of the technological gadgetry and internet, this ability to converse is becoming hampered and less esteemed than with the previous generation.
The conversations exhibited by the users on this board take me to an earlier time, and remind me that with the technological gadgetry and internet this art is alive and well. And takes me back to the time after a long day of quilting, and bumming a few cheetos my Grandmother was better than Twain at weaving her threads.
