      Of course in 1985 we had problems and issues but nothing like the horrific train wreck that is 2024. Please take me back to being just an eight year old boy.

    Best decade ever....I was born in 1961. Loved the 80's . graduated from college and went out work. Was close to my family and friends and we talked to each other and went out with each other with no cell phones. We were healthy and more people in the family were alive. Not so many psychos, druggies and people cared for each other and had more patience. No cancel culture. No political backlash. I think of those times everyday and wish we could have time travel. I hate 2023 and the way our country is going. This is the worst I have ever seen it. We have lost control of everything and we all know who is at fault. Also kids today are worthless and don't want to work. Everything is given to them either from their parents or the govt. Cell phones and social media have ruined society. Also back then when laws were broken you went to jail or had to pay for your crime. Now you don't go to jail and there is no bail needed. It's catch and release. I guess it's better than being dead to be alive right now but it's close.

      1980's was a strange time for graphics. Allot of people don't realize that what was shown to the market versus what actually really could be done was two different things the same went for movies as well. The main issue was rendering time was incredibly long and whatever cost ontop of that. So it got to be expensive. But back in the day the company I worked for (Oil Company) we had a graphics demo we needed to get done for a project, that involved a lateral drilling product. We plan on basically the better part of the year for the graphics project just for all the rendering time and creation. So we paid a graphics shop to get it done. In the end the end result was beyond anything that most folks have ever seen for the time. Of course everybody was blown away at the graphics. At the time I had no clue they could even produce a end product like that. The guy at the graphic shop stated to the effect. That they could do graphics that went beyond what was noted in the general market place as high tech. He said the only thing was it just takes forever to do it and most graphic places don't want to spend the time doing it either. Sadly I don't have the video of it. The video was highly protected. So trying to get a copy of it was out of the question and could cost you your job. So i choose not to take the risk of my job over a graphics video. Anyways just some tidbit of information for ya.
