In my youth I was a Whizz kid with a slide rule. Took over my Dad's &
later bought a better one. I taught a couple of generations of Sixth
Formers how to use them and then along came the Scientific Calculator.
End of story. Anyone want a Slide Rule?

Occasionally I hear of people who still prefer to use a slide rule rather than
the calculator on their phone. I would probably be one of those persons if only
I had learned how to use the slide rule!
Give it a try, using a slide rule is as easy as falling off a log.
