It is truly amazing the amount of human progress, especially in the last 100 years. I posit that all of the inventions that we enjoy today were inevitable. Someone would have invented it sooner or later. Once you reach a certain point in technological development that it's a question not of if, but when.
The printing press, the telephone, the car, the lens, the computer, the radio, radar, the gun, the atomic bomb, jets, concrete, the frigerator, and the list goes on.
One of the interesting things to me is how many things were discovered/invented right about at the same moment in time independently.
