^I often wonder about stuff like that. Although it's starting to feel like there just aren't any new ideas anymore. At all. Which leads me to believe that the future is pretty bleak.

I like learning about this stuff. When in Williamsburg, the historian showed us a tool that was used for constipation around the time of the Jamestown settlement. It was a huge spatula looking tool that was about one foot wide. I just don't get it.
