Can you say Conspiracy?
- It has to be Nicola Tesla. Everything we use is a directly tied to what he invented. Alternating Current and the Tesla Coil. Your world would not operate correctly without AC and without the ignition coil in your car. Even the current hybrids and electric cars use a form of Tesla's AC dynamos. Doesn't anyone remember Edison who went around electrocuting animals to prove that AC would kill, where as Edison's DC current could easily kill too (about the same volts). Tesla discovered that over 2K+ cycles per second pulses of AC would flow over someone's skin instead of through it. Tesla also invented other devices we are still trying to figure out. Since he was not even in top 10, I have to seriously question this polling and the history being taught in schools. Even i didn't know about Tesla until I did researched him on my own. What an inspirational, complicated and unsung super genius the world had the privilege of neglecting.

Johann Gutenberg
- Before the printing press ideas were passed around by letters. This was very slow and limited the number of people who received new ideas. With the printing press an idea could now reach thousands of people. The idea could then be expanded and passed again to thousands of people. Once knowledge began to expand the world was off and running.

Mr. Hall
- The best inventor of modern times in my opinion has to be Trevor Baylis, who came up with the wind-up radio. It was a great revolution for those in Africa, and brought news to those who previously would not have been able to receive it. A great invention for people in the Third World.

edison is overated!
- edison had very few original ideas,his major invention was gathering greater minds to do his work while taking the credit.tesla,in one week,improved the efficiency of the d.c. dynamo and was denied promised compinsation by edison.edisons d.c. distr. was clearly infirior to tesla,s a.c distribution,as well as t.e.,s incandesant lamp to n.t.,s flour. lamp.edison=group effort/trial and error..tesla=indv,effort no trial no error!!!!the world operates on poly phase a.c and many countries are outlawing incd.lamps in favor of more efficient flourc,lamps...not to mention teslas individual inovations in radio,radar,remote control,ect...edison was the p.t. barnum of electricity...tesla was the jesus christ of electricity..lets not confuse an administrator as an inventor..lets celebrate the single greatest mind in history(rivaled closely by divinci)!!!!
