    From my casual reading of history and what was invented/discovered at what times in different areas, life before, say, 1830-1850 would be unrecognizable to us. Hell, drop me back in my teens and I’d struggle to remember how to navigate the 80s! In just 55-years, I’ve seen such radical changes I sometimes feel swamped by history and tech.
