Food for Thought

While this show focuses on digital technologies, I wanted to take this opportunity to remind everyone that technology only recently defaulted to mean digital. With that in mind, did you know that the first water pump for firefighting was invented in ancient Alexandria by a man named Ctesibius (the C is silent). He was a prolific inventor but in a bout of irony all of his inventions were lost when the library of Alexandria burnt to the ground.  More on pumps: https://www.fireresearch.com/frcnews/archives/63
