Good lord. Everyone over 40 remembers defrosting their freezer.
Patronize much?
I'm not QUITE that old. but... My mother tells me that her father made one of the first Refrigerators in California.
He was a refrigeration engineer workign on the big Fishing processing boats (They moved the fish processing onto boats back than so the fleets could catch more fish not having to return to port to offload)
He converted an ice box to a Fridge.
Alas I never met him. he died just weeks before I was born.
I do recall Grandma however.
