Reading a paper written in less-than-great English.
It refers to a source from 1972 as "ancient literature".
I think we should call all papers older than 50 years ancient literature from now on.
Or maybe 20y?

@nikodemus@kamu.social I've usually said that can't be a classic of literature if under 50 years old, but I'm willing to change terminology to ancient literature.
