[QUOTE="Woutinc, post: 6302029, member: 78422"]Why people buy a beamer then? If all their Friends have one? Impressing is possible. As the working class didn't have any. I'm sure if i seal a letter nowadays i again impress at least some people. And my last argument. I didn't invent that story about that 19th cent. hype, so i ain't going to diffend it in whatever discussion is thrown up. [B]This communly known explanation can be found in antique books (i have) and everywhere information can be gathered.[/B] Another quick found reference Why do early 20th century seals then exist while common usage already was gone half 19th? I am not going to spoil time diging into all my books to prove. I respect anyones knowledge, please don't try to duscuss (undermine) mine each time. Why else should i respond with a good determination? Believe that explanation or not, it doesn't hurt me if one doesn't :happy: Last thing in said about it. Peace? Please?[/QUOTE]
