Nostalgia. When I first bought a house it was considered acceptable to find a house with a for sale sign and knock on the door to look at the house. Then go to the estate agents if you were interested. Now find this hard to believe. Nowadays if you see a board, depending on the time of year it is more likely to advertise a school fete or artist open house. I agree they have lost their usefulness.

> And, if you're a Brit writing US English (it happens), I really have to think hard over licence / license. C for noun in English. S for adjective. S for all uses in American. But in practice (or is it practise) S is often used for software licences even by English companies. -
