I'm thinking of human inventions, here. Which do you think are the best and worst, and why?

My candidate for Best Invention is the Internet. Obviously, I was going to say "the collander," but the Internet itself hijacked what I typed and inserted itself. Seriously, I am continually amazed at the applications and remaining potential for human benefit from the Internet.

My candidate for Worst Invention is television. Grancey and I were sitting outside Sunday afternoon, and I remarked that it was sad to think of the millions of people sitting indoors at that moment watching TV instead of experiencing life. I blame TV for a lot of social inactivity that plagues Americans.
