Ua ʻike anei ʻoe i ka mea nāna i hana i ka mea holoi makani?

I ka hoʻoilo o 1902, ua hele aku kekahi wahine i kapa ʻia ʻo Mary Anderson i Nu Ioka a ʻike ʻo ia ua hana ka ʻino ihoʻokele kaʻalohi loa.No laila, huki ʻo ia i kāna puke noke a kaha kiʻi i kahi kiʻi: hemea holoi laholioma waho o kapale makani, i hoʻopili ʻia i kahi lever i loko o ke kaʻa.

Ua hoʻopaʻa palapala ʻo Anderson i kāna mea i hana ai i ka makahiki aʻe, akā he kakaikahi ka poʻe i loaʻa nā kaʻa i ia manawa, no laila ʻaʻole i huki nui ʻia ka hoihoi i kāna mea i hana ai.He ʻumi makahiki ma hope mai, i ka wā i lawe mai ai ʻo Henry Ford's Model T i nā kaʻa i loko o ke kaiāulu, ʻo Anderson's "mea hoʻomaʻemaʻe puka makani"ua poina ʻia."

A laila hoʻāʻo hou ʻo John Oishei.Ua loaʻa iā Oishei kahi mea hana lima i hana ʻia ma kahi kūlokomea holoi kaʻai kapa ʻia ʻo Rain Rubber. I kēlā manawa, ua māhele ʻia ka pale makani i nā ʻāpana o luna a me lalo, a ʻo kalaholio uaua heʻe ma ka hakahaka ma waena o nā ʻāpana aniani ʻelua. A laila ua hoʻokumu ʻo ia i kahi hui e hoʻolaha iā ia.

ʻOiai ua koi ka mea hana i ka mea hoʻokele e hoʻopili i ke kāpili ua me kekahi lima a me ka huila hoʻokele me kekahi lima - ua lilo koke ia i lako maʻamau ma nā kaʻa ʻAmelika.ʻO ka hui ʻo Oishei, i kapa ʻia ʻo Trico, ua lanakila koke i kapahi holoimākeke.

I nā makahiki i hala iho nei,nā mea holoiua hana hou ʻia i nā manawa he nui e pili ana i nā loli i ka hoʻolālā ʻana o ka pale makani. Akā, ʻo ke kumumanaʻo kumu nō ka mea a Anderson i kahakiʻi ai ma kahi kaʻa alanui o New York i ka makahiki 1902.

E like me ka ʻōlelo a kekahi hoʻolaha mua no nā mea holoi makani: "ʻIke maopopopale i nā ulia a hana i nāka hoʻokele ʻana me ka maʻalahi.”
