Many of us have fond memories of the 1980s – listening to Van Halen cassette tapes, watching “Dallas,” “The A-Team” and “Three’s Company” on TV, spending hours struggling to solve the Rubik’s Cube.
However, while it’s great to reminisce over photographs of big hair and parachute pants, few people would want to return to the ‘80s and lose all the conveniences we’ve come to rely on in 2016.
