9. You'd Need To Take Gas

They didn't even know about petroleum, let alone how to refine it. Maybe you can get your bike modified to burn ethanol. They knew how to make whiskey!

2. Television, DVD/VHS player, portable generator, gas

And media of George W. Bush to show the founding fathers to let them know that no matter how smart they are and how carefully they're planning things now, it all breaks down in the future, and we get Chimp-in-a-man-suit as president.

Hey, I'm cruel.
