    We also dial the phone and roll down the windows. I guess some phrases transcend time.

      We turn the volume up despite it probably being a button, too.

      We also hang up phones, which used to literally be what we had to do, but which makes no sense today.

        Is it possible to program a smartphone, so that, using gesture control of some sort, you can hang up a call by dramatically placing the phone down face first on a hard surface?

        I SAID GOODDAY SIR!

          If you set it down hard enough, yes it will disconnect the call.

      I mean, I put down a deposit recently for a new car that will have roll down windows.

        It would be cool to have power windows that are activated by a hand crank. You would just rock it one direction or the other, but maybe bonus points if you have to continue rotating it to keep the window moving.

          Cool? Yes. But the whole point of crank windows is mechanical simplicity. This is anything but that.

      Clocks still tick even though most of them are digital nowadays, and the floppy disk is still the universal symbol for saving. We humans love novelty but hate change.
