machines make life easier Valerie Galayda flipped a switch and the voice began, Hola, Isa- bel. C6mo esta? Margaret Cave- nagh fed a basic to the terminal computer-and a simplified an- swer appeared.

machines cannot replace people Mr. Shivers and Jimmy Erwin knew, and everyone else knew as well: 1969 was the year machines came to Lee. Some of the machines were small yet conspicuous-like Mr. Shiveris scooter. Some were long-awaited and definitely welcomed-like the air-con- ditioners. Another-the computer-was unseen but tremendously powerful.
