Most important invention ever

[numtel]

What does everybody think is the most important scientific development ever?

[Olly]

The ability of using electricity.

[InvisibleDuncan]

Blow up dolls.

[Serge]

The computer keyboard with not all the ASCII keys, lol

[numtel]

it's actually for a science project and i'm in the school library

[goudabuddha]

I'm in the same class, in the same school, sitting next to numtel right now

[chrisjk]

I agree, the discovery of electricty and more importantly, how to make it on demand

Well... the wheel, then.

[numtel]

anybody else?

[DerFarm]

ummmmm....Saran Wrap.

I'm not joking, either. Througout history, the problem has not been to Find food or grow food, but to preserve food.

Saran Wrap serves as very good pointer to the food preservation industry.

[numtel]

k, i'm gonna do my research on the weeel and gouda is gonna use pizza

[DerFarm]

If you do the wheel, make sure you mention that the pryamids of
Egypt and the Mayan peninsula were done without it.

[Juan Carlos Rey]

You hear all the time "the greatest thing since sliced bread" then sliced bread must be Nr one!

[aknisely]

Napstart.

[Jimmy Changas]

BEER! ( come on science played a part somewhere )

[DerFarm]

Actually, Jimmy, you might just have hit the button.

Beer was probably the first preserved food source in the Tigris-
Euphrates region....and I'm not talking about the horse piss that
passes for beer in the US.

The first beer was thick, non-carbonated, and stayed "good"
(read: edible if you're REALLY hungry) a lot longer than anything
else in the region.

An EXCELLENT suggestion.

[Jimmy Changas]

i suppose when someone says "beer is a meal"

they arent lying..

DerFarm:Speaking of horse piss.. do you know how coors light is made?.. well it's made from the piss from the budwieser clydesdale horse

[BG]

perferated toilet paper!

Breast implants

[BG]

Antibiotics get my real vote though.

[sail3005]

You people seem to have forgotten the printing press.

it advanced communication/literacy (obviously)/education and provoked ideas that changed to world forever. It also ended the dark ages.

Horse piss is stronger than some of the beer over here...

Depends on what kind of grass the horse has been eating.

[ghost ryder]

the wheel, i mean, it revolutionised everything

or the computer, which did a similar thing

*ahem* Nipple Implants

[ghost ryder]

It says so in the path to the image in your signature. View the source for the pages you post on.
FYI

[goudabuddha]

I'm investigating that beer thing...if I can find enough evidence to support it, I might actually use that.

The teacher might get a little PO'd but the criteria for the project are:

1)The thing must be supported by lots of evidence
2)You have to convince the rest of the class that you are right, not them
3)The most convincing and memorable person wins.

I'd sure be quite memorable, I'm sure I could be convincing, but could I get enough evidence?... If anyone could get me some evidence that beer is the most important scientific development to mankind, that'd be cool.

How is this for an imortant invention.........the internet

[goudabuddha]

I was just about to post that!

[Guv]

My vote goes for the first tool, whatever it was.

If concepts, not physical objects are to be considered, perhaps it was the first trade (maybe food for a tool): The beginnings of cooperation between non relatives.

Once the above happened, the rest was almost inevitable.

[Stefan Raab]

My vode gotes for Maus. Because he comes here.

[numtel]

I think i'm gonna stick with the wheel because i can convince people very easily
