&gt; You can still use your pens and pencils …<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; But you will have to print.   Cursive writing skills are no longer taught in most schools.   If you wish to have your grandchildren understand it, it must be printed.<br>

&gt; &gt; Very practical advice Mr.Brannon.  :-)  We have and are literally putting all our eggs in one basket are we not.  We can not function without some electronic aid to store our phone numbers,<br>
&gt; &gt; take notes, etc.  I wonder how sales of pens and pencils are faring these days.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; Will Underwood do?  I can not remember my last machine.  It was an electric portable, at least portable at the time it was purchased.<br>
