technology (r-p-o-p-h-e-s-s-a-g-r)

My son pointed to an object in our department office and said "Dad, what's that called again?" I expected to see him pointing to the electronic air filter. But when I realized what he was pointing at, I had a flood of mixed feelings. I was somewhat melancholy because a technological art form is being forgotten. I was a bit amused, because of all the time that I had spent with this device over a decade ago. My response was "son, that is a typewriter." "Can I try using it?" he asked.

His third sheet of paper was reminiscent of E. E. Cummings or Edward Lear.
