Ep.280: Beware the Small Things
from SmartDrivel
We always worry about the large looming events that change history. Yet, often, history’s pages are changed not by some titanic event (pun intended), but by small, seemingly inconsequential occurrences. A wrong turn, a different kind of rivet, a misplaced comma, a cuppa tea, a laziness in rushing out on vacation, etc. all led to seismic changes in history. Sadly more for the tragic than the benevolent, but these small things punched way above their historical weight. Jon and Kurt point out a few to get your dinner conversations started.
