Messages from The Before Time

I can't help it.  After years of dumpster diving projects I still look at piles of stuff on the way to oblivion.  This batch of stuff was behind the high school.


Just an ordinary filing cabinet.  With storage going up into "the cloud" I suspect fewer are needed any longer.  The names seem vaguely familiar.  True, it is a small town, but I'm pretty sure I've had one or two of these in robot classes.  Or maybe their siblings.  But it is the dates that grabbed me.  All from 2019.  Probably the cabinet was turned to the wall at that point.  And soon after that the world shut down for covid-19.  Maybe this was the first time anyone has looked at it since.

It seems longer than five years ago.
