If you have got the time, sample this -
In 1805 the news of the Battle of Trafalgar took 17 days to travel the 1100 miles to London, a speed of 2.7 mph. News of the 1891 Nobi earthquake in Japan took just a single day to travel 5916 miles, some 246 mph. With the greased-wheels of Twitter, we're seeing events like the 2008 Sichuan earthquake find their way to England in under 8 minutes, at 38,250 mph. 204,000 mph, had the twitter been quicker.

And if you are a woman, then this might make sense, Jolie's decision.
Happy reading!
