What country has gone to as much trouble to help the world as the US?where did the Internet come from? the automoblie,the airplane?Half-Life2?


Surely you are not so insulated from the rest of the world to know that the majority of breakthroughs in scientific endeavour don't take place in the US?


LOL, that is all kinds of hilarious! And the automobile certainly did not come from the US.

Nor the computer, nor the aeroplane. Sir George Cayley was the first true pioneer of flight, whilst Charles Babbage invented the analytical computer. Both British. It was most likely a german named Benz who could be said to have invented the first gasoline motor car, while the first engine was invented by another Briton, Thomas Savery.

Sir Frank Whittle invented the Jet Engine, which lead to modern aeroplanes, another Briton.

The English physicist Stephen Gray discovered electrical conductivity in 1729, and Thomas Edison did not invent the light-bulb, rather he bought out Joseph Swan's (british) carbon filament light-bulb. He even renamed his company to include Swan to give him a little credit.

I hate to say it, but it is these type of comments that attract the flack from other countries.

Yes what a marvelous invention that was, human-kind just took a big leap backwards with that one

Note how it says Location: Great Britain

It's not my fault we invented those things :(

Notice I did mention the german inventor of the automobile :p

Wow, more ignorance!

I'll tell you who:

Robert Oppenheimer, David Bohm, Leo Szilard, Eugene Wigner, Otto Frisch, Rudolf Peierls, Felix Bloch, Niels Bohr, Emilio Segre, James Franck, Enrico Fermi, Klaus Fuchs and Edward Teller.

They all sound real American, don't they ;)
