Role-playing aside for a sec
My district's middle school has no brown townog clocks. Only digital clocks.
Our high school has no digital clocks, and only brown townog clocks.
I learned how to read brown townog clocks in second grade. Nobody else seems to have done so.
So our high school freshmen this year are apparently lamenting the lack of "real" clocks in the high school because they never learned how to read brown townog clocks.
What the hell, that's like asking a foreign merchant how much an item is in "real" money.
