History of US? I've enjoyed reading old books. Panic, misinformation etc etc etc has been published in studies over and over again. I have a book about 1900 that predicts the end of female virtue due to the bicycle. I have another complete with graphs to give it credibility that if we do not switch to electric trucks always were good for short haul, stop and go deliveries the streets of NYC would have horse manure up to your waist.

When they write about us, surely they will have a laugh about what we thought. Exercise? Books will appear, of course with graphs as to how many people die on the way to the gym and pushing the machines. Bacon and salami? They didn't know were the cure for hydrophobia of the blowhole.
