   Micheal M. Dronov to alexander koryagin   
   Hello

   Hi, alexander!   
      
   15 окт 16 21:51, alexander koryagin -> Micheal M. Dronov:   
      
    ak> What do you mean by "sending 51 mb to your tablet"? It is not clear   
    ak> IMHO.   
      
   I tried to say that my FidoNet client downloaded about 51mb mail after   
   rescanning...   
   It is very huge!   
      
    ak> It's clear, the young generation prefers to play games. Absence of   
    ak> advertising is also very important. Those who do want to talk   
    ak> constantly hear "Facebook", "Twitter", "Live Journal" etc at every   
    ak> corner. And a person needs only a computer browser. Easy access. But   
    ak> you have to collect many information to find your way to FIDOnet. The   
    ak> GoldEd's pseudo-graphical interface IMHO is not very attractive for   
    ak> the modern people.   
      
   Yeah, you right. Also the new programs help you to not to think about how to   
   send mail, how to view it, how to get uue file from letter, etc..   
      
    ak> Another problem -- to find subjects to talk about. There is a simple   
    ak> rule here. If you use the language and learn it -- you have questions.   
    ak> Otherwise, there are no questions. I remember a time when I translated   
    ak> some Russian books into English. That was a gold time for learning. I   
    ak> used a pile of dictionaries, already translated books, on-line   
    ak> dictionaries and forums. I could sit at every sentence thinking how to   
    ak> translate it in a better way. ;)   
      
   How long you was translating books?   
   And what books were translated by you?   
      
   wbr, Micheal.
