When I was working in Colombia about 20 years ago, one of the Colombians
working on the project referred to the ash tray in English as an "ash hole"
until we corrected him.

 Cigarette lighters---they were handy even for those who did not smoke; a
convenient tool for fuzing shoelaces when aglets broke off. At one time called
cigarette lighters, then cigar lighters, then they became power outlets w/o
the lighter.  Is there a different name today for what was once an ash
tray?Bob
