You know, the heater ones, oil filter canister (which by the way had a yellow base and black top!!!). So I get this A/C air cleaner decal, that is almost triangular, orange and black, and notice something odd. I say odd just because I am not one that has an english major on my resume!! As proof read my first sentence again!! But as I am reading the decal it says "oftener under severe conditions", referring to cleaning this air filter. Oftener is a legit word (I looked it up), but can you imagine using it today? I think you would get the same reply that my wife with her Southern accent gets all the time- Where are you from?!!!

I mean has anyone ever heard that word spoken before? Oftener?
