Me too, though until fairly recently could remember pretty much all of it, even the parts covered with a purple haze ;), but the kids I'm around today have a somewhat less flattering definition same as the leading edge baby boomers did with some of our [grand] parent's lingo such as 'terrific', so to keep from always having to explain myself any more than I already have to do with my techno babble, I've pretty much abandoned the lingo of my youth except when 'bench racing' old cars or similar where the youth still seem to embrace/enhance it.

My friend is a tube head and picked up a lot form a hammy's estate which had 6 '30's WE 300B that I tested for him since his tester doesn't do 4 pins. They all tested 2x+ min. He made $18k.

yeah, this 604 appreciated pretty well too
