I just read a book about a time traveller from the 1850's landing in 2011.

Smart phones are the obvious.

Internet.

Clothes would be difficult to explain. Or the lack of them on women I think.

The amount of traffic and the speed on our roads.

Easy travel.

The hardest thing to explain would be why the hell would I feel the need to explain anything to a person who had the intelegance to master time travel

If Someone From The 1950's Suddenly Appeared again

A hypothetical question. A person that lived in the 50's, never lived in society again until 2013.
