the song Eric sings is mostly a parody of the Dear Abby song but it's the tune to Sweet Betsy From Pike, which Dear Abby is not

More like 1600s when the printing press came out.
By the 50s most newspaper offices had machines that could make thousands a minute.

"In order to attract the best composers and lyricists, CTW allowed songwriters to retain the rights to the songs they wrote."
In other words, these songs could be reused with permission of these songwriters, and they are not the property of Sesame Street...

Ah yes, the way they made newspapers in the 80s

[@loogle]

Check out that computer at 6:36.
I bet that's either an Apple or an IBM PC as both were command line and only did 4 colors which were shades of red and green.
I have a feeling that particular computer is an Apple I or an Apple II.

@loogle i'm sure they got permission for it

[@kylehill146]

I meant 6:30. Sometimes with YT videos it's hard to point things out just right.
