LOL.... I remember about 20 years ago wondering why FAX was still being
used over e-mail. Only now is Fax falling to e-mail and PDF's.

Mostly because of Asians. Ideographic languages like Chinese,
Japanese, and Korean, with thousands of characters, don't
lend themselves to being typed into emails. So "hand written
then faxed" messages remained the norm there until quite recently.
