Re: Obsolete Skills
[ QUOTE ]
Not really a skill...but knowing the difference between "can" and "may". My guess is that "may" will fall out of usage completely in another generation or so.

My son uses "may" every day. But now that you mention it, use of quotation marks and the apostrophe are apparently completely lost skill's. Most people think quotation marks means italics, and more or less randomly put an apostrophe next to any s at the end of a word.
