Pocket Protectors


Don't laugh - these were a big deal in my engineering heyday. The Bell System was chock-a-block full of engineers, and therefore, pocket protectors. Why I carried one for something like 30 years in one fashion or another. 

I'm sure you are all familiar with these useful items. It is primarily the reputation of the typical wearer that colors their reputation. As ever, I turned to Google for a picture of a typical pocket protector wearer. I shudder to admit I got this.
