A very distinct childhood memory I have (my best guess is that it was most likely sometime in the summer of 1975, a few months before I turned four years old) is when one day I really wanted to watch a Charlie Brown special. I really wanted to watch it right then. Back then, you had to wait until a special holiday to watch one. Since this was in the summer, the next one was months away. I didn’t really realize that and was very disappointed when my mom said it was not possible. Today, of course, you can access any old TV show or film within mere moments. But back then you couldn’t, and it made those periodic Charlie Brown specials truly eventful and special. I can’t describe the feeling of joy I would have, after so much anticipation, to see that “CBS Special” logo rotate onto the screen and then to watch that wonderful cartoon, complete with Dolly Madison commercials in between. Another example is that my brother and I started out with only four video games for our Atari VCS. That’s it. And we played the hell out of those games and loved them dearly. We didn’t get a fifth game until months later. We treasured every single one and played them for hours. Now I can instantly find and play any game I want from a selection of thousands. Despite what we have gained with immediate access to virtually everything, we’ve lost a little something at the same time, that feeling of magic and wonder.
