Gutenberg invented the most important technology of the millennium and immediately went bankrupt — and so did the bank that foreclosed on him, and so did his apprentices. Gutenberg could make a batch of 300 books for the cost of one, but there weren't enough buyers in his small, landlocked village in Germany. It it took the better part of a century of further innovations, social changes, and setting up of distribution networks before you could have a pamphlet like Luther's 95 thesis get from Wittenberg to London in 17 days.

@sourcerolls @egavactip Sorry, skip the 2nd capitalization. Buffalo buffalo [bovines from Buffalo] buffalo [intimidate] buffalo buffalo buffalo [bovines intimidated by bovines]. Apparently “Buffalo buffalo” followed by any number of “buffalo”s and a period form a grammatically correct sentence.
@sourcerolls @egavactip Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo.
@egavactip Why end the thread with a picture of George Clooney?
@egavactip Strangely, I read you daily for a morale boost. It’s comforting to know that Pitcavage has got me covered.
@egavactip He thoughtlessly calls it a “false flag” attack when there is no dispute that the Liberty flew its true flag, as did the misguided attackers.
