Why have I never heard this stuff before? This should be taught in schools. It is stunning. I had no idea this kind of recording existed.

I mean think about it, he fought through the Civil War, lived through the Wild West times, the Industrial Revolution at the turn of the century, and saw the inventions of radios, televisions, cars, airplanes, tanks, jets, and nuclear weapons.

I really can't even fathom it.

Here is another neat video. I wish we had more of these old people on tape giving interviews. Post anything you have.

It's neat to hear the accent. Definitely different. Hard to put a finger on it. (he's from Virginia)

Not really an authentic recording. But still a moving reading of an authentic letter.

Bump.

It's kind of sad. I feel like thousands of years of human interaction was wiped out in 100 years. I mean, since ancient times communication was done by horseback and then bam instant communication.

There's loads of recorded testimony about the holocaust on yad vashem, pretty good stuff.

It's pretty great. Think of all the lives that have been saved because it just takes a 30-second phone call to get medical assistance in an emergency. Or how much easier it is to share ideas with people thousands of miles away from you.
