  1. I once met someone who was born before Karl Benz built his first car and lived long enough, she was 100 at the time, to see the first man on the Moon. So in her lifetime we went from the horse and cart to Saturn V.

  2. Poor Thomas Selfridge. I am sure when he became involved with aviation it was not to be the first person to die in an aviation accident. We sometimes forget how the Wright brothers tried to monopolise aviation which is at odds with the fact that even they had to admit they had relied on other peoples discoveries.
