Anyone closely-involved in patents and inventions soon learns that most new ideas are, in fact, as old as the hills.【B10】______that makes news and money. The basic patent for the theory of magnetic recording dates back to 1886.【B11】______. Even the Volkswagen rear engine car was anticipated by a 1904 patent for a cart with the horse at the rear.
