I started a thread on this some time ago, but the thread was deleted presumably because of one or two offensive posts in it. I will start the same thread again.

And these were the replies in the original thread.

Hi Jane;
Personally, I can't see why it is called either. Sometimes you go down, an action not described by either name.
We are not tiresome, we just seem that way.

I've always called it a lift. Except for when I was in America... Wow, that's strange. But in this case I agree with bobby.

Hi all;
You can never go wrong agreeing with bobbym.

Thanks for restoring the thread Jane... seems quite uncharacteristic for a whole thread to be deleted like that...

@ bobbym:
"Personally, I can't see why it is called either. Sometimes you go down, an action not described by the name."

Nor is that described by "elevator"

Thanks, Identity.

I have sent an email to MathsIsFun demanding an explanation for that outrageous action.

Hi Jane;

Hi identity;

That is what I was saying, neither name is accurate and should be replaced by uppie-downie.
