Sliced bread, The Internet, WonderBra, dehydrated milk

What hasn't been invented yet?

I met my Hegedus great grandmother a few days ago. She was another fan I had the pleasure of meeting on Matthew Strada's International Tour 2006.



As she is a bit older than me, she got me to thinking about everything that's been invented in her lifetime. That's the listing in the title of the posting - a smattering of things that came to fruition during her years on this planet. There's nothing left for my generation to invent and change. I mean - they've even got a patent for a warp drive:

My generation stinks.
