Oh I had a slide rule too. It was a K&E as I remember and
I wish I still had it. ^_^

My Dad, bless his heart, taught me how to use a slide rule
when I was in high school trig class. His was bamboo and white,
as I remember it. He bought me a smaller one, and I cherished
it. I hope I still have it, but, I've moved a half dozen times
since so it's somewhere.
