It was still Roman numerals then, right?
and on stone tablets using a chisel. The really hard students used to carve the answers by head butting the stone. The really, really hard students did the same but used someone else's head. :shock:

The best part was seeing them sign the papers - it was like watching Woody Woodpecker on speed! :D

I dunno, kids today eh, calculators and stuff, and they don't even get the cane anymore, hell they even get classes on what to do behind the bike sheds ;). Kids today don't know they're born (I've never actually understood that expression :)).

On a side note, it is surprising how many of use are cub/scout leaders, although I'm quite new to it.
