    Fair enough. Most people don’t encounter analog clocks anymore. And many of us have smart watches or phones where we check the time. Since I have a non-analog watch, I don’t find I ever look at analog clocks anymore. If it’s in a room, I just don’t notice it. Growing up, it was important to know, but now I just never have a use for it. Learning is important, but there are so many more interesting and useful things to learn.

      Yea that’s kind of what I was thinking when I said eventually handwriting will go the same way.

      If people never encounter it and do all their writing on keyboards, it’ll eventually be a useless skill as well.
