My thought, your thought, our thoughts...

There is nothing new under the Sun... they say.

Another cool machine I would like to have is one that color tags the thoughts or has some cool function, like that of spreadsheets that trace the origin of a particular result, in this case of a particular thought. A machine like this would put little lines in the minds of people (from all over the world, from all eras) and bleep, bleep, bleep when it found a thought never thought before. Perhaps I would discover really old thoughts that have been traveling from mind to mind generating actions, moods and other ideas for decades, centuries or millennia. Perhaps it would signal to really original thoughts, never ever thought before, that completely catapult entire civilizations into different directions. Perhaps it would be just a waste of time... as at the end of the day thoughts always come from the outside, don't they?

But since this blog is all about curious musings, I'll entertain the idea a little longer.

I wonder... what was the first thought ever thought? And most importantly, who thought it?
