Absolutely, but they still use them for a lot of formatting and editing. The thing that's a change here is that they aren't even on the same floor with the lawyers; they are on a different floor and won't be seen. It's an easy step from that to not in the city or the country, entirely.

Rich partners, of course, will continue to have secretaries because they want to have someone to organize their day for them. And so it has always been- you're rich, you get to have servants.
