    Printing Evolution - Thirty Years Past to Present

    I cried, almost profusely after reading Michael's writing. The short time I had the pleasure of being an acquaintance with him, in service, is now appreciated more than ever. Our understanding of that verve engraved in us and that is hard to find in most of the populous. The love of the game...

    Nanography, What is the Hold Up?
