I have an interesting technical/scientific question. Please think carefully before answering it :: Suppose we were living in 1970 again, with all technical knowledge that we have today. What stages of progress would we / could we skip ?? For example, perhaps, we wouldn't make pulse-system telephones. We would directly go to Tone phones, or Fiber Optics. Making a pulse system, and changing the whole thing to tone would be a costly thing. Basically, what mistakes did we do ?? You may say, none of them were mistakes but a way to learn and correct ourselves. I agree. But if you could do it again, what wouldn't you repeat ?? I am waiting for your responces. MAX at FAU
