I thought floppy diskettes of any size had joined rotary dial

radios with pushbutton presets, vacuum tubes, and windup alarm
clocks. Of course I could be wrong.

Anybody have a need for 3.5" diskettes?
Or some nifty expandable diskette holders as shown here:

Hey! Vacuum tubes haven't entirely disappeared. I have a modern stereo
set which uses entirely vacuum tube amplification from the moving coil
cartridge pre-pre-amp to the control pre-amp to the two power amps.
I must admit that to the best of my knowledge no vacuum tubes are made
in America, Britain, or Western Europe. Think Soviet Bloc.
Because Russia and China could not compete with the West in solid state
electronics, and because vacuum tubes were not nearly as sensitive to
massive magnetodynamic events (atomic and hydrogen bombs) the Soviets
went right along making vacuum tubes. This to the delight of us
reactionary curmudgeons who enjoy REAL high fidelity.
