    Well businesses use them because there is so much traffic coming and going. Hope you don’t have that much at your place.

    I could only think that we have better weatherproofing around doors now (and better doors themselves too with better insulation). And the rest of the house is better insulated and air tight too, so less of a need. We used to have screen doors that cut the wind as well, don’t see many of those but those could come back. Interesting idea but I can’t really see them coming back, especially with many new houses being those small skinny houses.

Acus has several meanings including a “single-prong hairpin” or “needle and thread,” she says. Translators generally went with “hairpin.”
