Toshitsuru san, Good evening

Thank you for your comment. Sorry for my late response.
I missed it. (^^;

Using mimeograph as a tool, we did in fact received a salary which I like to that that old machine. I remember, though, that I had to rewrite the correction, under the direction of my boss, over the original writings by stylus a number of times which tore the waxed stencil paper. The tore portion had spread out and the outcome was the printing in all black.
Huum, yea that was right. Once the correction was made on the stencil paper, the characters all became blurred. But then you were instructed to do it all over again a number of times and tore the paper?

Wao! And after finally getting it done and you were about to print it, you were black all over! Uuu! How miserable, I really sympathize you! You want to cry, but you cant! - I really understand that well.

And because we had printed a large stack of printings to be distributed the next morning, we had to work over night on it. Such was the case with stencil paper is so was the Japanese rough writing paper. The hectic and even dreadful workload we had go through can perhaps only be understood by those who actually experienced the process. I even had nightmares.
I can picture you working all night almost alone getting all black in inkI would weep in sympathy with you.

And it come out even in your dream? You really had the recollections filled with ink! I must say I am sorry to bring this subject up which brought back your nightmares. (^_^;

I do think that it was not an easy tool to handle.

I only bought it for my hobby, and hardly used it.
