Historical Tid-Bits

[LadyLocust]

Being an "old soul" as the saying goes, I enjoy quite a few odd little morsels of history. I've said before, "I know many useless things, just don't ask me anything important." Did you know the zipper was invented in 1898? See, like that. Anyhoo, here's a little video clip I'd not seen before. If any of you have little bits of historical data you'd like to share, might be fun ~

I have no specific anything to share right now, but I have been thinking about how our world has evolved from manual labor for all things to technological and mechanical production of almost everything. My thought relative to this is that is this evolving or in some instances, devolving?

Don't know how many have ever heard of him, but he is historically the closest thing to the Lone Ranger.
