We don't want to reinvent the wheel...

You hear it all the time and that statement is dead wrong

We don't need to reinvent the wheel said the Celts

We don't need to reinvent the wheel said cartwrights throughout the middle ages

We don't need to reinvent the wheel said bicycle makes in Victorian Europe

We don't need to reinvent the wheel said 1920's Detroit

We don't need to reinvent the wheel said the tyremakers

Hold my beer said NASA and reinvented the wheel without a tyre, inner tube or fixed outer rim (that will work not just off road, but off planet)

We need to reinvent the wheel, the pen, the book,the farm, political and belief systems because what was fit for purpose then isn't necessarily fit for purpose today. #Reinventthewheel
