Without fear of being misunderstood, there is "Mr. Taguchi" who is skilled enough in information manipulation to be able to freely use smartphones and online banking and participate in overseas casinos, and there is a government office that still processes its business using floppy disks. If you compare the two, it goes without saying which one has higher information processing ability (literacy)... There is no way that the government office can compete.

And so, in response to this, the old system remains forever. I remembered when I was in charge of the "Building Management System Business" during my active career. It was the "PC Network System Business" that managed the energy, lighting, security, etc. of buildings. At that time, the progress of the PCs, peripherals, media, etc. that make up the system was rapid, and I witnessed the rise and fall of PC manufacturers and the remarkable evolution of models and OS versions. Floppy disks also changed in the blink of an eye from 8 inches (about 20 cm) in diameter to 5 inches (about 13.3 cm) to 3.5 inches (about 9 cm). After that, we continued to use USB memory sticks and SD memory cards, and the trend never stopped. Even though equipment and hardware change drastically, the "Building Management System" optimizes management by accumulating data, and because NET is not widespread, the system cannot be updated frequently. In order to respond to system upgrades and complaints, loading with floppy disks was necessary, and it was necessary to leave the system delivered to the customer exactly as it was, from the main unit to peripherals and applications. As a result, something like a "PC museum" or "PC archive" was created, where all the systems delivered to customers, including the equipment, were left. This proved to be effective in dealing with the "Y2K problem." I think it was thanks to this museum that the replacement of applications to suit each customer's hardware went relatively smoothly. However, in order to maintain the customers' systems, the person in charge had to go through the trouble of searching for second-hand products and hardware for maintenance on NET auctions, as the manufacturers had discontinued production of models, or the manufacturers themselves had disappeared due to their withdrawal from the business. Nowadays, even OS and application upgrades can be done via NET, so it has become easier. So, tonight's song is "I'm Old Fashioned". It means "Am I out of date?". It was originally an insert song for the 1942 movie "You Never Lovelier" starring Fred Astaire. Written by Johnny Mercer and Jerome Kern. by Johnny Mercer / Jerome Kern "♪ (Verse) I am not such a clever one About the latest fads I admit I was never one Adored by local lads Not that I ever try to be a saint I'm the type that they classify as quaint (Chorus) I wonder if I'm old fashioned I love the moonlight I love the old fashioned things The sound of rain upon a window pane The starry song that April sings ...... ... Many musicians have covered this song, including Fitzgerald, but tonight we have four female vocalists. First, we have the singing of my favorite, the modern shrine maiden, sorceress, and powerful older sister, Cassandra Wilson. Her albums include Blue Skies (1988) and the best compilation album, Sings Standards (2002). Just four years after her debut, Isabella Lundgren won the Swedish Album of the Year in 2015, solidifying her popularity and talent. Her album is Songs To Watch The Moon (2017), a collection of songs about the moon. Margareta Bengtson was once the lead singer of the popular Swedish a capella group, The Real Group, and is said to have the most beautiful voice or soprano in Scandinavia. The title is from the same album, "I'm Old Fashioned" (2006). Here is a live performance. How about Sarah McKenzie, a popular Australian singer these days? From the album, "Paris in the Rain" (2017).
