[78-L] The audio casette is making a comback

[David Lennick]

Ah, nostalgia..fishing the tape out of the shell when it slipped behind the 
pressure pad..hearing it slow down or crumple..having to rescue it when it 
packed up in your car player..no, man, there is NOTHING to justify this. Oh, I 
forgot, trying to rescue listenable audio from something sent to you by a 
friend who used a $30 recorder with automatic level control and K-Mart's 3/$1 
cassettes. Granted, when there was no other alternative, chrome cassettes were 
pretty good.
