Oh and

THE PHASERS LOOK LIKE GLUE GUNS. "Don't look yet, but the security detail really went Martha Stewart on that hostile alien lifeform." I had to go to ThinkGeek to figure out that there was a ray-emitting bit that was detachable, and that was what Kirk used in those episodes where he was nuking androids and stuff with a garage door remote. (But garage door remotes hadn't been invented yet, right? I'll stop soon, I promise.)

It seems they've been around since at least 1958.

Ha, brilliant - before one of the over-50 flisters comes across this and kicks my ass. XD

Well, I wasn't allowed to drive until 1970.

And lots of people didn't have garage door remotes when I was a kid. (But I think of it as being a kid thing as in my family it was given over to the kids to operate.)
