There were no calculators at school. In 1973, when I finished school, I scarcely have heard about calculators. We had logarithmic tables and slide rules. The slide rule brand was "Aristo". And there were no wars about nothing, not even about fountain pens - but the best of them were Pelikan, then and now. Nowadays, I own about 30 calculators, 25 slide rules and a hundred fountain pens, mostly Pelikan, of course.
