Had read this ages ago, just found it courtesy of Mr. Gore's Interwebs.
I uploaded the story (not the entire volume).

Basically it is about people from the recent past finding our tech, or more modern tech, and what they might surmise.
Sorta interesting. Enjoy.

I note that the truth he espoused in '48 is so much more true today for him than those he spoke of in '20.
I imagine someone from '48 trying to reverse engineer 7nm microcircuit integration. The smallest thing they could see with a light microscope was (and is) ~500nm ... 1/200th the ubiquitous and obligatory blonde cunt hair.
