you mean like my house with its double hung windows with sashweights? or the apartment in my childhood with a dumbwaiter?

several thread have got me thinking about words for technology that is obsolete. Station to station long distance calls, or telegrams or even turntable and vinyl records.

darning eggs, or sheets hems to middle, turned collars, or even a boarding house reach are becoming so archic to be obscure phrases. pehaps, someone can throw some ideas, words or phrases over the transom.
