Try cutting through your modem cable and counting the rings. I believe that's how you date things.
(Er... to be scarified is to have little cuts made in your skin, usually for ritual or tribal reasons. I do hope our resident twelve year old isn't into that sort of thing.)

Oh, great, bait him with the fact you're firmly in the digital age. Banned for opening up a can of wormsModem, what kind of Stone Age implement is that?

And exactly what modulates/demodulates the signal between the ethernet cable and the fibre-optic cable? Could it be.... a modem of some sort?
Still using ethernet cable to connect your computer?
How primitive.
My house has a wireless network.
So don't go looking down on others when your knickers are showing![]()
