I suppose it does require some comment. In the history of the modern world, probably no other technological instrument was so widely used for so long, only to disappear virtually overnight. The slide rule's form and features were revised for centuries, and there are probably few people today over the age of 50 who didn't routinely use one in school or at work at some point in their lives. Yet with the advent of inexpensive pocket calculators in the early 1970s, slide rules quickly went the way of the Dodo. What's all the more remarkable is that today it is possible to pick up 140+ function scientific calculators for as little as $5! For me, I guess slide rules carry with them a sense of nostalgia for earlier scientific times. When you use one, you get a much better feel for what numbers really mean than when you use a calculator or computer. They are remarkable technological instruments, built with precision and reliability in mind, and are as useable today as the day they were first made. Many are also intrinsically beautiful, with their celluloid covered wood, metal-framed glass cursors, and richly coloured leather cases. I didn't set out to collect slide rules ... but I find their incredible diversity and functionality amazing and intriguing. If you're reading these pages, then maybe you do too, and so no other explanation is required. In any case, I hope you enjoy the site! If you're interested in learning more about collecting slide rules, check out The Oughtred Society. They are an international organization dedicated to the history and collection of slide rules and related calculating devices. Sliderule.ca in the News Sliderule.ca was featured in the technology section of the Los Angeles Times (June 28, 2001). The article was reprinted in several online newspapers, most notably the Nando Times and Pioneer Planet. Since the online links are often updated or removed, click here to see a scanned copy of the original article. You might also be interested in following the discussion of the article that ensued at the technology site Slashdot (July 7, 2001). I now know first-hand what it means to get "slashdotted"! A brief review of sliderule.ca has been reported in the online version of the technology business magazine Business 2.0, entitled "When Slide Rules Ruled" (July 18, 2001). One link to sliderule.ca (January 19, 2002) that generated a lot of hits was from the online collection of unusual sites known as memepool. I guess slide rules strike a common meme among people (my apologies to Richard Dawkins for the pun).
