Had to explain the term "CRT" today. Am I really that old? Didn't everyone at one time stare into a particle accelerator for their motion picture enjoyment?

@Wodahs Kinetograph?? Even I'm not that old!
I just tried googling "CRT". I got "Cross Timbers Royalty Trust", Critical Race Theory", "Cardiac Resuscitation Therapy", and "Community Renewal Team" but no "Cathode Ray Tube" until about 3 pages in. You know you're too old when even the internet has forgotten what you did when you were young.

CRT here is also a rural farming supplies store and yes i had heard of most of them but with your comment "time stare into a particle accelerator for their motion picture enjoyment" i had assumed you were going with the Cathode Ray Tube , a part also used in early TV's
hence going with your statement "Am I really that old" i thought id go for the father of the TV the moving picture unit Kinetograph
or in short "im explaining im old too"
actually i thought i put the old in oLDtaku

This has nothing to do with anime but I thought it worth sharing. One of my friends used to have a small cabin in the nearby Angeles National Forest. Her cabin, along with a number of others, burned down in the “Bobcat” forest fire a few years ago. One of her neighbors is an artist and he drew drawings of all the cabins that had burned down. The drawings are done in charcoal obtained from the remains of the burned-down cabins. The pictures have been posted online here.
