Who is Justin? Printing is complicated. I took a tour of the LA Times when I was in third grade I think. What a freaking hassle to make lead pages for every page of the paper every twenty four hours. Get out of town! I remember the halves being set into the presses and the foundry room and they gave us a little piece of type and mine was the end of a sentence that had absolutely no context or consequence. I seem to remember some rubber or plastic ~ maybe they were printing with that. Maybe it wasn't the LA Times. I do know the editor of a big newspaper and when I flew into his town lo and behold he took me on a tour of their newspaper just like a bigshot and there weren't no dang lead nowhere. Or maybe in the basement, with Hephaestus or somebody. Saw The Gang Of Supplement Stuffers, though. And a lot of nice pin-ups, that possibly aren't allowed in the workplace nuhmore. I like that computers can print. And now, I like that cameras can cam. I think all in all I must be pretty happy. I'll have to think about that.
