NPR: NPR’s Robert Krulwich recently made a bet with Kevin Kelly, founding editor of Wired magazine, who claimed that “there is no species of technology that’s gone globally extinct on this planet"âmdash;in other words, there is no tool, no invention ever manufactured by humans that isn’t still being made new today. Krulwich appealed to his readers to come up with suggestions to prove Kelly wrong, which he narrowed to what he thought were three definitely dead technologies: radium suppositories, a Roman corvus (a plank used to board enemy ships), and the memory device inside a 1950s jukebox. Kelly proves him wrong, in this entertaining NPR blog.
