We rarely realize how many of the things we take for granted every day, many of which we could scarcely live without, first came into existence as a result of men and women who were basically just fiddling and farting and tinkering around.
I was thinking about my glasses. How on earth were humans ever able to figure out how to mold and shape glass and other materials to refract light in just such a way as to correct one’s vision? The answer of course is because somebody or multiple somebodies fiddled and farted and tinkered around until they figured it out. And the kicker is everybody around them probably thought they were crazy, wasting all their time fiddling and farting and tinkering around with things that nobody else cared about.
Where are the fiddlers and farters and tinkerers today? And what are they fiddling and farting and tinkering with?
