Default Re: Firewall vs Dash

words lose thier meanings over time. and I find it interesting to look that up. put etomology after any word and google will give you a lesson.



"Originally, the word dashboard applied to a barrier of wood or leather fixed at the front of a horse-drawn carriage or sleigh to protect the driver from mud or other debris "dashed up" (thrown up) by the horses' hooves." google unsourced.
