If young people knew how to use a rotary phone, they could call Heaven and talk to the angels. It takes a rotary phone to call Heaven, because they always have a real ring. If they knew how to use a manual can opener, they could have soup without a pop top. If they knew how to use a manual bottle opener, they could have a drink without a twist cap. When I was a kid, my idea of "cool" was people who had a bottle-opener attached to the wall of their patio. When my sons were little, I found them intently studying the bottle/can opener, and it has a magnet on the back, a very dangerous-looking pokey fridge magnet. They asked me what it was...and it's difficult to resist saying "It's a kid-puncturer!" LOL.
