Forty years ago, Tatung electric cookers that clicked off when the rice was done, Hsu Kuang fluorescent lights that really were "as bright as sunlight" and Tai Tzu Lung student uniforms that "won't wear and won't shrink" once brought people astonishment and joy.
對我們自己而言，四十年前的清晨，「大同電鍋」結實的跳鍋聲；晚上真得和太陽光一樣亮的「旭光日光燈」；磨不破、不會縮的「太子龍學生服」，曾經帶給人們多大的驚訝與歡笑。
