Oh, wait. North Dakota. Two years ago.
First thing I thought of when I read your post was the first head of the Patent Office who famously said, everything worth inventing has already been invented. I looked that up to find his name, (Charles H. Duell, Patent Commissioner, 1899) and found these cuties, just for a laugh.
1. "Heavier-than-air flying machines are impossible."
LOrd Kelvin, President, Royal Society
2. "Stocks have reached what look like a premanently high plateau."
Irving Fisher, Professor of Economics, Yale University
3. "Louis Pasteur's thoey of germs is ridiculous fiction."
Pierre Pachet, Professor of Psychology at Toulouse
4. "I think there is a world market for maybe five computers."
Thomas Watson, Chairman of IBM
5. "We do not like their sound, and guitar music is on the way out."
Decca Recording Company, rejecting the Beatles, 1962."
No offense intended, I say plenty of dumb stuff myself. Just some fun stuff.
