Plea #59: We Grow Slow! People don' even look up no more!
Ever since folks started usin' them fancy schmancy pocket watches, they dun completely forgot how to tell the time of the sky!
I never got one myself, cuz they always rubbed me the rong way (and its not like i was rollin' in metal neither Hyuk Hyuk!), but it looks to me like jus' about e'ryone else has!
I had a fella come into mah shop, askin somethin about, "Do ya have the time?".
I jus' about burst a seam!
IT WAS NOON!
You don' even gotta step outside fur that one!
So I tell 'em as much, and then, when I thought I jus' had enough, he asks how I knew.
Have mercy!
Noon's the neutral time!
All ya gotta do is look up at the sizzlin' yolk in the sky to see it!
Can't miss that!

Maybe I'm bein' a bit hypocrytical thuogh...
I reckon mah' greater gran' pappy 'ould laugh himself blue in the face if he saw how soft my shoe-wearin' feet are!
Then theirs mah weak, lamp-relyin' eyes and mah sleeve-wearin paleness...
I guess, as technology progresses, we creatures often regress ourselves!
It's like we offload the stuff we had in are skin an' bones to a pile o' tin with a spring wound up inside...
I bet 'ventually we wont even know how to write on are own!
Heck, if we keep on goin like this, I wonder if us intelligent creature's 'll even need to be 'round!
Maybe are lamps 'll read, write, and wipe are butts for us by then Hyuk Hyuk!
Ah well...
I hope these n-ventors no what their doin'!
