One thing that HASN'T disappeared into the sunset is the Silca Brass pump adapter that converts a schraeder to a presta ( pray god i hope i got that right this time around ... )

While pumping up my paramount tires in the early 1990's, my Akita desperately tried to coax me away from the house to begin his daily run. When I put down my pump to screw the schraeder cap on the tire, he grabbed the Silca adapter, ran into the bushes, and dropped it somewhere in front of our house.

That one disappeared into the dogset, not the sunset. Never found it...
