So, I have a desktop (from a long time ago) that's been sitting in a room in my house for about 8 yrs, I just notice that the two front rubber feet have turned into a gooey mess. But why did that happen? No solvents or whatnot nearby.

TTFN (ta ta for now)

The wheels on my rollerblades are around 16 years old. Got them out last week and the wheels promptly turned to mush with first weight on them. It's interesting though - my rollerskate wheels never did that, even over time.
