In the 21st century, has someone not invented a screw thread which

Methinks what you are looking for is called a "cork".


What I'm looking for is an inventor to bring us into this century. I'm
really not impressed with the devices we use today. On the one hand we
have mobile phones which are more powerful than supercomputers a few
decades ago, but then simple little things are still ****. We still use
the internal combustion engine for example. We can't cure the simplest of diseases.


Thats not accurate with vaccination alone.
