Subject: Slide Rule "Sighting": Winner for strangest one yet?
Greetings:

Well, this has to be the strangest sighting of all...

I've been unpacking my new office (moved down the hall), and had the
radio on, half listening to an oldies station.

A commercial came on for "Ridgedale Mazda" (could be NY or NJ). In
talking about the "great financing", the announcer said "...now put
your slide rule or your calculator away and come down and check it
out for yourself..."

I kid you not.
