    Out west we have the problems of receding glaciers, they're going to vanish at some point in the future.

      They made good stuff in the 70s.
      See how quickly things changed?

        Er... yes, receding to leave the huge valleys which you must have seen?

            Nope, receding into the rivers which then gets used by farms for irrigation and people for drinking.

                Here's a picture of one (a canadian one) for you. Note the enormous valley.

                  I see a weak river.

                  An appropriate comparison.

                    Radios were innovative in the 60s?

                      Transistor radios...mid 50s they first were invented IIRC. By Sony...

                        I thought it was Bell Labs in the late 40s.

                        Maybe that was just the transistor though.

                          Bell Labs invented the transistor.

                          The I.D.E.A. Corporation invented the transistor radio, the Regency TR-1.

                            Yes, but Sony made the first transistor radio and started the whole electronics boom in Japan...

                              No they didn't. Unless they were known as the I.D.E.A. Corporation: http://www.antiqueradio.com/ward_history_12-98.html
