I just printed out a chart of cursive letters to give to my great grandkids.   If the school will not teach them, lessons will be taught here.  I can just see them handing in an assignment to a teacher who says, "I can't read this."

The biggest source being changed is for Broadway musicals, all of the old scores are being replaced with computer generated printing. I have quite a few hand printed works, by others, in my library that could qualify as works of art.
