Re: we need some of that over here too

Well, I don’t know when the saying: "The something was only invented in (insert year of invention). We got along fine before." was first heard, but I´m positive we could well do without it cause a) it´s absolutly meaningless and b) it´s wrong cause the plane has made many things easier, like the time when the Russians blocked all the roads to Berlin (that was after the war) and when I wanted to visit a friend in Australia. I heard people arguing in the line of: The Internet was only invented in the second half of the 20th Century. We got along fine before. I mean, how dumb can you get and I don’t know if you have any idea what life was like in the early 1900s but I can assure you it was hardly as convenient as it is today. Think a bit more positive, old chap.
