A year ago I would have phoo-phoo'd that notion. but I spent a lot of time this winter while I was MIA studying the modern day history of paper patching and its demise. I pretty much traced it back to a week in 2008. The only word you got wrong is "old" its much deeper than that.

We probably should wait til DD gets done playing in the desert sand before we delve to deep into that, I'm sure he'll have some interesting takes on it.
