When the old seems the everyday norm we conform. More then 100 years and we
still move everything heavy and in bulk on trains. It rather seem as technology
has stood still, or has someone kept it for themselves leaving us what is old and
works.
Yes I do believe that somewhere there is a breakaway civilization using other
advance technologies. But it comes down to the economical prison we are living
in. One day when we donot use gas anymore maybe.
