I wouldn't be taking any credit for most of this. This poster would be better served if I could find Leonardo Da Vinci or something and give it to him.

"Putting electricity through quartz changes it's shapes, that's clocks" 😮 what?

"Make aerofoil go fast and you can fly, here's a vague picture of a wing." Excuse me?

I think I can pull off finding mouldy food and hot milk so I've got that, I guess.

Saying that, if I made a time machine, I imagine I would understand the things in this poster.

"Spin a large magnet near some copper coils, you've invented an electrocution device!" I think having a vague idea about some of these things is more dangerous than not knowing anything. Lots of stuff about electricity and nothing about grounding and insulation.

"you can get insulin from dogs and pigs by tying the pancreatic duct!"

Get rid of the wing and show me where to find this bit inside a pig and I can save lives, we can just wait for the wright brothers to figure out flying again.
