Quantum Leap poll: how far back in history do you think you could reasonably stand to live, versus the level of society we have achieved today?

1920s-60s wouldn't be that hard since, other than computers, we live pretty much the same as most of the 20th century did
going pre-electricity would be one big divide
pre running water and modern medicine is where it probably gets dicier
