David McGrath: Give me old things for the new year. Bring back paper maps and pay phones.
Briefly

Unlike many of my boomer brethren, I do not yearn for the good old days.Instead, I embrace change and shed no tears for the disappearance of manual typewriters, four-barrel carburetors or Meister Brau beer.But there have been some extinctions for which there was no rhyme or reason, and whose losses, I believe, have diminished us in some way.
