Anyone who studied analytic philosophy probably came across Julius, a character created by Gareth Evans who was defined as being the person who invented the zip. The point of Julius is, of course, that the person who invented the zip could well have never thought about fasteners in his life. This means that Julius might not have invented the zip. All very exciting stuff.

In the 70s, when the big G was writing, it would have been hard to find out who the real life Julius in fact was. Now it is trivial. We have Wikipedia. Philosophers still discuss Julius without asking the obvious question: who, in fact, did invent the zip.

This annoys me. If they did ask, they would find that the answer is... nobody. Nobody invented the zip. Various different interlocking fasteners were invented and eventually we had zips. This is a much more interesting philosophical issue. Even with medium sized dry goods that are clearly the result of human design, there is no first exemplar. They are not separate from their history or their culture. They are not as discrete as we think they are.
