I’ve often said that if Orville and Wilbur were trying to invent the airplane in Dayton today- the City Commission would pass an ordinance banning them from doing it. They would be mocked unless they had a herd of people behind them. And, they would be beaten down. I often wonder if the reason they went to Kittyhawk was because they weren’t allowed to fly in this town.
We love beating down the square pegs into our perfect round holes.
Great post David.
