"When you present an Englishman with a principle or an instrument, no matter how impressive it may be, you will see that the English mentality is focused on finding a flaw, a drawback, or an impossibility with it. If you mention to them a machine for peeling potatoes, they will say it's not possible. But if you demonstrate it peeling a potato before their very eyes, they will still dismiss it as useless because it can't cut a pineapple." -- Charles Babbage. | |||
