no it’s not, or your not that old.
I remember December 23 1990, I had a 1978 mailbu wagon that would not start, I was doing the battery shuffle, crank on it till it was dead, bring it in and charge it on the fast charger (car was out in a parking lot with no outlet) I got frost bite on my left thumb, I can hardly feel a thing since with that thumb. it was -24 out that day in Minneapolis MN.
Really?
I must have been too young to remember.
