The god of technology is Prometheus, the god of fire. Fire to promote
entropy production. My question is
how do the San people make fire?
Personally I have thought much of the common theories that archeaologists
have about 'making fire', and I believe that 'primitive' people have used
other ways as well. I well share with you my thoughts later, after
receiving the response on my question.
