“We are the pioneers of the world, the advance guard sent on through the wilderness of untried things” – Herman Melville
Today we look back at the pioneers of yesterday and see how crude their methods, tools and lives were. Think about the Model T, the milkman, adjusting the TV antennae for reception. Think about Compact Discs all over your car, Flip phones, My Space, and Blockbuster Video. What about your trade?
At the time, they were pioneers, doing things that were novel and cutting edge. What can you do today to contribute to the progress? So many people have created all kinds of inventions for you to use. What idea or combination of ideas and tools can you contrive to make life easier, safer, more fun, or solve a problem?
