Proximity in time and space

Today in linguistics we discussed compound words and polysynthetic languages. I then decided that microwaves and ovens will be referred to both as a cookingbox. To specify one or the other it will be nuclearcookingbox and thermalcookingbox. I don't suspect it's anywhere in the near future, but oh yes, somewhere between the future and the cavemen that follow is my neuclearcookingbox. Mybe it seemed funny this morning because I was still recovering from the last lingering kiss of a weekend of medication.
