Once upon a time, even before the world wide web, darkness covered the land and me but a fledgling was tasked with editing my boss’s business letters. As VP of engineering he was a man of letters. Many letters. Templated letters for my boss was organized in the ways old managing engineers oft are.

Lotus 123 he wielded for engineering calculations and thus Lotus 123 was his weapon for business letters. No spell check of course. No line breaks either. Such was my editorial lot.

Please keep off the grass.

I had a civil engineering coworker send me a flowchart in Excel. I was somewhat impressed.
