Bad analogy as usual.


Yeah, fire has been around since the beginning of time.

Not viable fire to cook with, at one time it was a new technology. Good
thing the cavemen understood the importance of new technology, and
developed it further. They even made their own new technology, rubbing
two sticks together to create fire.

Now microwave cooking, there's a technology that was new. It was touted as being the wave of the future, a new quick way to cook a meal. It wasn't long before everyone realized that most things cooked in a microwave are crap, and now the majority of people only use them to reheat food or make popcorn.

Reheating cooked meat in a microwave makes it taste funny. I try to avoid it.


So you don't have a microwave? Do you have heat and A/C in your house?
What about electricity? Do you drive a car? What about the computer you
are typing on? At one time all of these were considered dangerous, too
expensive, and not viable.

Any fire is viable to cook with. The alien visitors taught them a way to *start* a fire when they wanted it, not when nature provided it. They gave them magic sticks. :-

So you don't have a microwave?

Now why on earth would you think that, Kevin?

Besides, you sidestepped the fact that a microwave oven is an excellent example of a new technology that didn't live up to its initial hype.
