Like plastic surgery, perverted from their original emergency purpose into something soul-destroying? True, but nope.
On the hot-or-cold scale of questioning: Coolish

Lol, the telephone? Alexander Graham Bell is a little older than RIM!
But yes, all Canadian inventions. The walkie-talkie and the pager were invented by the same guy during and immediately post-World War II respectively.
You can also add the lightbulb which was invented by two Canadians; Edison only bought the patent.

Your turn!

Yes, please.

Let's add Poland and Mexico to the list and see if that helps.

That did it!
 
Books of  fiction by James A. Michener.




tropicalhoney -> RE: What Do These Things Have in Common? (9/16/2010 7:47:14 PM)

Exactly, though I thought Recessional would do it!

Your turn.
