There's always something about the Time Log that gets me! "Hooting excitedly" with those round hooting looks on their mouths!
The very 1st thing I look at in the AM is the Daily Dilbert cartoom then the Far Side cartoon. This daily Humor is like a bonus; kinda exciting like finding a quarter on the sidewalk! Thank you.

Time travel is not
good. It might
change our ideas.

In regard to time travel, I
always think people born in
the 1870s and 1880s did
did just that if they lived to
age 70 to 80.

The changes they saw were
probably more remarkable
and quicker than at any other
time in history.

There was a guy around 1910 that wanted to close the patent office. He figured that most everything that was going to be invented already had been

My Dad was born it 1917, he died in 2005.

I'd say that he saw more changes than the people you mentioned.

True, the horse and buggy were gone by 1917.

My arguement - atomic energy. commercial avaition. transatlantic flights. widespread rural electricity and phone service. Long distance calling. direct dial calling. microwave ovens. Television. cell phones. Home computers. Internet. Spaceflight. Landing on the moon. medical advances. birth control. polio vaccine.

JMHO YMMV.

I remember back at my one job having a conversation with a younger partner about what we considered to be the start of "modern times." He said he thought modern time started around 1970. I had said that I believed modern times started in 1940 because by then we had metal aircraft, indoor plumbing in a substantial number of homes, radio and superhighways (the PA Turnpike had just opened). I guess my view was probably skewed by being 15 years older than him.

Modern Times began in 1936.
