Let's see if we can come up with a product that never caught on. Here's one.

delayed-release air bags

Have you got one?

They don't have to be real, you can just make one up!

Surely face to face webcam chat is the technology nobody wants. Everyone I know has a webcam and none of them use them for chatting to friends, relatives etc.

Also, I went to a car boot sale the other day and nearly every stall had some kind of exercise machine and a breadmaker machine.:)

a 'car boot' is short for a 'car boot sale'.

basically it's a load of cars in a field somewhere, with people selling second-hand goods out of the back of their cars.

oh a car boot is a 'trunk', i believe you call it, or is it a 'hood'? - the back one anyways, where the engine isn't...

=========================================

ps - if you want to quote multiple people, first click on the 'multi' button for the first, second etc quotable person, then click the 'quote' button for the last.

=========================================

Thank You for the info mickey, I was wondering how to do that multi-quote thing. It is the trunk here in the backwoods of America, where, as well, a car boot is something completely different. It is what the police put on your auto tire if you've been parked too long in a non-parking area. It's so you can't move the car until it is towed. And as far as your dogbegone, :roflmao:
