How ironic... I'm allergic to penicillin...

Anyway, here are my top 3 candidates:
1.Computer
2.Internet
3.Cell phone (or more accurately, the multimedia phones - I'm telling ya, if it wasn't for these devices, the world would have been very VERY different)

I can't think of a single use of a zip where buttons wouldn't suffice?

Neither can I, other than that a zip is much easier to undo and do up than buttons which take time.

I would sooner use a zip though, buttons are too fiddly.

Buttons have gaps inbetween where you do them up, zips don't.

So things like backpacks, sleeping bags, tents etc, wouldn't really work as well
