I asked one of my patients last year, who was 104 years old at the time, what was the best invention he had seen over the years. He said, "Electricity; without it, we wouldn't have all this."

In the last year, we have disbanded, not repaired or replaced, tossed out and donated the following:
Two VCR's, one DVD player, one top of the line cassette player, a desktop computer from 1996, our home phones, our home phone line, a large projection screen television, two cell phones.
Now, we have this...

I was told to expect any new electronic device to last half as long as the previous one.
What do I think is the best invention in my life? There are too many to choose. I'm still waiting for my "Rosie". The electronic domestic goddess from the Jetsons.

I am sure there will be something new tomorrow.
