My wife and I were watching a really old The Price is Right recently, and they didn’t know what one of the words of the prize name meant. I don’t remember what the word was now as it was specific to that artist, it was a type of lithograph. But they kind of shrugged their shoulders and moved on. Then like 30 minutes later in the show they were like oh hey, we called this professor at UCLA and asked what this meant and it’s a type of lithograph. I remember my wife and I were just like holy crap the days before the Internet…
Before the Internet, your argument would just be wrong or uninformed and you wouldn’t know what the answer was supposed to be.
You just had to wait for the library to open, check the card catalog for relevant keywords, and hope they had a book on the topic!
