    When I was a kid in the 1980/90s, we had two encyclopedias at home: a 20 tome encyclopedia from 1905, and a three volume current one. At some point we got Microsoft Encarta, a CD-ROM encyclopedia.

    It was far more common for people to say they don’t know something and refer to other’s expertise.
