Of course much had changed since his life. He could see that even with the old constituents of the house. He watched it evolve as more and more technologically advance items started entering his household. The refrigerator was one of the more interesting ones. It was true that his family owned something similar, but in the 1910's the couple that owned the house brought in the first refrigerator he'd ever seen and the family that lived in his home in the 80's had replaced it. That was the one that squat in the living room now and he could just remember wondering why they put full meals in there and it took him days of watching to figure out that the contraption actually worked as a more efficient system than his own family used for food storage, him not being able to feel temperatures. He wrote, I'd be curious to know what other words have changed since my time. I have seen microwaves before, actually! The last family owned one. I am not sure I want to know about the dark side of the "internet". Of course, he'd be figuring it out soon enough. If the "internet" was used through this device, he might be able to power it himself while she was away, provided she did not take this fancy contraption with her.
