Ray Bradbury Farenhiet 451 anybody? Oral communication probably occured at around the same time as "written". Both progressed into better evolved forms respectively. The first oral communication was probably grunts and that, now we have languages and the whole bit. Writting started as pictures, now there is grammar, etc.. Although it pretty much became complicated when the Egyptions and Romans hit it. Road, simple tools are very useful. Hunting with a "simple" spear is better then taking the sabertooth tiger on with your bare hands? Or do you beg to differ . Here is another philisophical (sp?) thing to pose. Does time really exist or did humans invent time?
