Forbes' list of the 20 Most Important Tools Ever
Or as I like to call it, "#1 on the Top 5 Lists to Cure Insomnia."
The entire list is available after the jump, but you have to go to the Forbes site if you want to read all the scintillating copy.
I don't mean to be a spoiler, but I have to tell you that you can't trust any list that would leave this tool off the list. Or this one. Hello? Or this one. Or this one.Or this one.Or certainly this one.
No. 1 The Knife
No. 2 The Abacus
No. 3 The Compass
No. 4: The Pencil
No. 5: The Harness
No. 6: The Scythe
No. 7: The Rifle
No. 8: The Sword
No. 9: Eyeglasses
No. 10: The Saw
No. 11: The Watch
