I had a microwave that was still working 30 years after it was purchased.  I threw it out because it was incredibly filthy and full of broken glass.

You didn't clean it for 30 years?  :hmm:

I'm currently shopping for a fridge. I'm told second hand is the way to go, especially in Japan where everyone is super clean.
Yet nonetheless...they all seem to smell rather funny inside...

Question: What does a cavity feel like?

I've never had one but I might now. Does it hurt all the time? Is it localized? Only when you eat certain things?

Rub surgar on it, if it hurts, that's a cavity. Can you see it? It's a dark spot.

They all do, even the brand new one. That's how an empty fridge smells.

Also, we sure spend a lot of money on "survivability."  Remember when the best fighter plane on Earth cost about as much as maybe ten regular cars?>

That would be, "never"?

Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

I'm sure I did at least once.

OK, fifty or sixty regular cars (P-51 unit cost $51,000 [not typo], 1940 Ford coupe [apparently "coupay," according to Gatsby and Bonnie and Clyde] about $1000).  You take my damned point.
