The clothes peg


I know quite a lot about language (langue) and languages (parole). I know quite a lot about learning theory and teaching methodology. I know quite a lot about wildlife and conservation. And a few other bits and pieces of psychology, management skills and so on.
But if I am allowed to come back in another life, I want to be endowed with the ingenuity and inventiveness of whoever devised the humble clothes peg. Look at it. It's a miracle of elemental engineering. Could you have invented it? No, me neither!
