1950s steel road bike vs 2009 carbon road bike - TT

I was never one to get into the steel is real and carbon is plastic argument. If I have, it was largely for fun and nothing more.
In other words, my love of steel bikes has nothing to do with performance and more to do with the history and expertise behind them.
Came across an interesting comparison between carbon and steel and, surprise surprise, the carbon bike won.
