Author's Notes:

For reference, here's the 1959-dated textbook that I got the idea from.

"Watcha doin?"

Professor Argall glanced up from his desk.

"I'm bored." Lisa squeaked as she plopped down on a chair beside the Professor, "Do you think you can read me a story?"

"No, Lisa. Not right now." Argall sighed, looking back to the papers before him.

Lisa's eyes caught the title of one of them. "Ooh," the child gasped, pointing at the offending article, "What if you read to me about radios?"

The Professor snorted, a smirk crawling across his face as he pulled the technical paper from the pile.

"Alright, Lisa. How about I tell you about the magical powers of radio?"
