I'm 45 and still call them TV sets. I wonder if there's a 20 year old in the country who's ever used that term? g I catch myself calling tires steel belted radials. Microwave oven is another one. Armstrong on the moon was 36 years ago... Let's see -- I graduated HS in 1978. So '36 years ago' from that would be 1942. (time-perspective game I sometimes play) Montblack
