I suspect the first time a human invented anything, the first human invention if you will, it seemed unremarkable, not because the invention itself was unremarkable but probably because inventing things was already common place and he or she didnt even know they were a human, likely the first human. Then again im not even sure how we would define the "first human" in general...
@freemo No, it was definitely remarkable, if only for the big black monolith's presence.
