Ya never know... ; )
People think forward, but never backward to wonder about the origins of things.
For example why do some ancient cultures use a base 60 count, others base 12?
How did we get our system?
Why do some cultures have very specific, but non-visible to the naked eye data on star clusters. Why do some adamantly declare certain regions of the galaxy is their source of origin and not here?
Curious things and we surely don't know it all. You can laugh. I don't mind.
I'm sure Edison laughed at Tesla when he wasn't totally pissed off.

Maybe mice run things... ; )
