The Speedometer at 110 and Counting

The speedometer at 110 ? We are not talking about speed either ;) According to Continental, the speedometer turns 110 years old this month. As you are reading this article, think about all that resides around your current locale? You chair, the monitor, a printer, carpeted floors and even a window or two more than likely. They all have one thing in common. Without numbers, they would not exist. While that point is obvious, imagine driving a car without a speedometer. When we drive, we all pay attention to how fast we are going. Some more than others but I digress ;) In the automobiles, we simply look at the speedometer.
