Oh, and the toaster.
wow, never imagined slowdive being referenced on lfgss. Note shoegazing and cycling at the same time is never a good idea!

On the basis of good invention, maybe not the greatest, but interesting:

Ok, possibly of no use on a fixie (!) but looks like another good way to add yet another dimension to cycling
sorry if repost

I'd say it was, we didn't discover language ?
Maybe there is a class of thing between discoveries and inventions ?
'Inevitables' ?

It depends... I mean, if necessity is the mother of discovery that just makes them sisters.

I'm not saying it's inherent, exactly, which 'discover' would imply...but seeing as thought is a function of language, is produced by it, we couldn't have sat around and thought it up before it existed, so to speak. It's not like we have thoughts, and then reach for the language in which to clothe them; prior to language, all we have are a load of unfocused drives, and inexpressible physical or emotional urges. Imagine being Wayne Rooney – kinda like that.
