Крым - об IMAX, санкциях, бизнесе и жизни

[ctor]

Сходили сегодня в местный IMAX. С фильмами, правда, повезло не очень, потому что в IMAX зале демонстрировался только "Интерстеллар" (на котором мы уже были) и совсем детские "Пингвины Мадагаскара". Зато в 3D

>>Не мы изобрели колесо
Между прочим, вероятно, мы, точнее, на нашей территории.

It's too patriotic to be true :)

Don't trust me - check in wiki!

I'd recommend to check English version as well and don't trust Ukrainian and Russian versions blindly :)

>>Evidence of wheeled vehicles appears from the second half of the 4th millennium BC, near-simultaneously in Mesopotamia (Sumerian civilization), the Northern Caucasus (Maykop culture) and Central Europe...
And what's wrong? CE sometimes can include some parts of current Ukriane.

This page
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Europe
has various maps of what was believed to be CE. Sadly, none of these maps include Ukraine.

That's exactly what I called "too patriotic to be true" :)

Using CE as one of 3 possible places of the wheel invention, then treating CE in such a way that it includes a tiny bit of Ukrainian territory and thus drawing a conclusion that "probably wheel was invented by Ukrainians".

As for me, pretending on someone else's credits doesn't add more respect to us. Instead, such attempts show Ukrainians as ridiculous and narrow-minded people. I doubt that such a result is what we need.

As for me, after obvious fail in "Sadly, none of these maps include Ukraine." it would be nice to apologize or change the tone.
Is it possible that whell has been researched on our territory? Yes.
At first, of course I've checked wiki on verious languages before wrote the 1st comment.
At second, thinkg the English wiki is the best looks for me like snobbery. It is not true except "political" articles. About wheel, you can check, for example, also German version.
Anyway, even small part of Ukraine is enough to say "probably".
