Did you hear they've got phones that can do math for you now? I heard it from some people up in Ohio. They think they're so great with their paved roads and running water.

No doubt. Regarding telephones my great-grandfather had the only phone in two counties. Folks came from all over to use it. That said, it was because he was a moonshiner and needed it for prohibition. He supplied Capone, FWIW.
The rest of the counties didn't catch up until many years later.
Too bad when prohibition ended so did the outrageous money but we were running what amounted to a big distillery not your average shiners. Crazy to say but my own mom didn't initially have an indoor toilet when she was super young and I'm not even that old but it just took time to demand such things and smaller counties were a low priority. It just wasn't cost effective. Even now, Comcast has fought tooth and nail to NOT run cable/high speed internet in rural counties (or at least the lesser populated portions of a county) because the cost is too high for the work.
