    I hope they remian there. Its still obsolete technology. Math nerds here calculate on iPhones mostly. It's hipper than the 70's math nerds who carried TI calculators in holsters on their belts. Or the 60's math nerds who carried slide rules in holsters.

    Surely pocket protectors are not fashionable in Queens.
