Obsolete Skills
There ought to be a law!
A long list of skills that were once valuable, but
now are obsolete
.
Here are a few of my own obsolete skills:
Adjusting the tracking on a VCR
Calling collect on a payphone
Cursive handwriting
Darkroom photography skills
Dialing a rotary phone
Extending The Antenna On The Cellphone
FORTRAN programming - though the logic is still good
Long division
Map Reading
Reckoning arithmetic without aid
