   I grew up in a house that still had gas pipes on the walls for the lights. Gas lighting. Pre-electricity

     @feld Did your home computer(s) and refrigerator(s) also run on gas? :blobfoxmlem:

     @tk The gas was never hooked up while I lived there. It must have been to a tank in the yard because there wasn't any municipal gas infrastructure in that tiny town. The house was built in the late 1800s.
     
     The gas pipes were just never removed when they electrified the home.
