Strangely, it was just last week that I was talking to someone about what the chances were of a teenager working out how to use a dial phone and who they would call as no one knows any phone numbers anymore.
I don't even know what verbs should be used for some things anymore, I seem to 'switch on' or 'turn on' a lot of things that no longer have a switch or
knobDial.
