and i don't think you can say scientists and doctors are clueless, since cure rates and life expectancy are way up from the 1800s, and will continue to rise to the best of available knowledge.

I mean, electronic principles and radio communication really hasn't changed much (except for making things smaller) since about the 1920s. calculus, geometry, that whole earth around the sun thing

some things don't change, and besides better biophysical/gene and quantum/nano knowledge, a lot of today's information will still hold true (like balanced diets, exercise, etc).

just because we can't cure everything instantly doesn't make this the dark ages or the pursuit of knowledge worthless, and, by the way, leeches are still used.

You're right. My mistake.
