I suspect you may be showing your age there Bran. I'd say at least 15 to 20 years since that term became common currency. Time does seem to go faster as we get older doesn't it? Sigh.

Heinrich Heine supposedly once said:
"When the end of the world is at hand I'll move to Holland, everything there happens fifty years later".
Fifty is exagerated but yes, everything that is world-mainstream terminology and fashion becomes mainstream here 5 to 10 years later.
(Not bad Heinequotes)

As for age and time: I don't want to mislead anyone and time runs and crawls simultaneously. \:\)
