Is anyone else out there old enough to remember using carbon paper, dialing a rotary phone, using a manual choke control to start your car in the winter, or using a CP/M language office computer? You can relive those and other old memories at the ObsoleteSkills Web site. The list is a little heavy on the geek side of the scale, but there are some interesting “skills” such as using a church key to open a beer can, that younger folk won’t remember at all.
On the other hand, even I am not old enough to remember telling time with a sundial.
