"Ok, so here's the theme for this one: you're in the 1890s and you've just seen your first lightbulb. All you know is it runs on electricity instead of oil, and that some fucking idiot caught some electricity in a jar during a lightning storm. Go!"
In 1890 they had telegraph lines between continents for about 40 years.
1890 would also be about 30 years after the invention of the telephone and 2 years after the invention of the strowger switch (first automated telephone switch)
"Ey, look! We gotta publish this book by the end of the week and the thermodynamics guy already wasted so much time that we're behind schedule! Pretend those people were morons, alright?! Now, c'mon, get to writing, you're on preface duty after that!"
