What ever happened to quicksand? How about mercurochrome? Cooties? Oh, and crinolines- what on earth did we do with all that stuff that crinolines were made of?
What's become of taps on shoes? Switchblades? Jockstraps? Wax Coca Cola bottles? Moon discs? X ray specs?
As I understand it, there really is no such thing as "quicksand." If you mix the right amount of sand with the right amount of water, you'll end up with a muck that is unable to support weight. So I lost that amount of sleep between the age of seven and thirteen for nothing?
Luckily, Brigette Bardot movies came along and I quickly forgot about quicksand.
