Title: The single greatest thing humans have accomplished.
Post by: Tsumaru on July 13, 2009, 04:31:31 PM
I would have to see harnessing the power of electricity.  Electricity revolutionized the way that we live, as I'm sure all of you will agree, and has enabled so much.

What do you think is the greatest thing we've done as a species?

Harnessing Fire, clearly.
And of course, the invention of House. Oh, and I suppose the Moon Landing was pretty nice too.

I find the harnessing of waves, and by waves I mean light, amazing.
Radio's, microwaves, gamma rays...
