Necessity is not the mother of invention....   Invention is the
mother of necessity.

Think about it.  The Automobile, the Airplane, the electric light,
the phonograph, the telephone, the Personal Computer, etc.  All of
these are used extensively now for reasons that their inventors
could not possibly have imagined.   They were not "needed", when
they were invented, but now that we've found good use for them we
could not possibly imagine living without them.

Due Credit:  I've been reading "Guns Germs and Steel" by Jared
Diamond, and the above thought was lifted directlyfrom that
book.   I highly recommend the book.
