Conventional knowledge would still exist for the most part (assuming an approx 10 year time frame), so we probably wouldnt have geocentric delusions or anything like that.

I would guess that as far as technologies went, the internet would be designed in a much more secure manner. Also, it probably would be designed as a scalable network instead of the scale-free network it currently is.

Vacuum Tubes. We would go straight to transistors and other solid-state devices.

A world without Twin Reverbs, SVT's, tubs mic pres, and the like is one I wouldn't like to live in. (Marshalls, on the other than, I care not for...) Heck, even germanium transistors are being put to good use for audio nowadays.

This is a great example of how evolution can produce things that are still useful decades later, even as most people have moved on to the latest and greatest.

Drum brakes? ...something i have always found interesting is what mistakes could we have avoided. Serious mistakes brought on by ignorance and pseudo-science, such as the act of bleeding to heal.

Don't bother reading the sequel it's not bad, but it's nowhere near as good as canticle.

no QWERTY!
