Regarding the use of mules to bring supplies into hurricane stricken areas, I am only slightly annoyed that people keep referring to this as like the "Stone Age."

Mules only started to be bred in the late Bronze Age, were major parts of huge military operations in WWII, and continue to be essential infrastructure worldwide today.

"Technology" isn't just computers. Calling the use of these animals "Stone Age" is not only incorrect, but insulting in its "primitivizing" whole peoples.
