Apple CEO Tim Cook tweeted this pic of himself on the Apple production line seeing how it's done. Those Apple iMacs in the background being used on the Apple production lines?
They're running Windows.

Cool! The lantern is the only modern thing there, and even that is 50 year old technology.

Yeah very old tech, I think 50 is being generous to Coleman, taken on a cell phone.

I wondered as I wrote that. I have vague recollections that the mantels had some sort of radioactive ingredient to make then shine brighter, so I figured they weren't 100 years old.

Yeah but many a product was found to be dangerous long after they were put into common use. I think it's like the posh California hotels with a brass plaque saying there are chemicals inside that the state of CA says cause cancer. Pretty small risk, but don't give 'em to kids.
OK, you peaked my curiosity, had to look up the history. The first lamp was 1905, but the first one I saw with the types mantle we're familiar with was around 1950, so you were right.

Doncha just hate it. Your favorite fishing spot, ready for some serious fish catching, and somebody barges in.

Looks like a still from a Roger Moore era James Bond movie. Has that cheesy feel to it, even if it's a modern Golf.
