KazGT6 posted... but didn't he legit invent the light bulb? He was much more a businessman than a scientist. His lab at Menlo Park employed the people that did most of "his inventions". Also like was mentioned, the guy was a disgusting trash fire of a human being. In addition to the things mentioned, during the "war of the currents" between AC (Tesla/Westinghouse) and DC (Edison) power, he tried repeatedly to associate AC current w/ being dangerous and deadly. Among those actions include inventing the electric chair, and having public demonstrations where he'd electrocute animals. <cite>streamofthesky posted [p:953285955] in Who is you...

streamofthesky 04/27/21 1:37:14 PM #18:	While he's by no means the greatest inventor of all time, and I'm not sure if all of his discoveries count as inventions, gotta give props to Genghis Khan, too. He created the Mongols' written language and laws, created a message delivery system by horseback that was the precursor of the Pony Express and modern postal service, implemented silk garments worn under armor to enable safe and easy removal of arrow wounds, innovated existing cavalry archer feigned retreat tactics to their most effective version, was possibly the first to use espionage for psychological warfare (infiltrate the society and spread fear of the Mongols so the people would want to surrender w/o fighting), and more. Also, I wish to submit my choice for the worst inventor of all time: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Midgley_Jr. Dude invented Freon (CFC) that destroyed the ozone layer and developed highly toxic lead paint. He died by strangulation from his own rope and pulley invention, fittingly enough. Midgley's legacy has been scarred by the negative environmental impact of leaded gasoline and Freon. Environmental historianJ. R. McNeill opined that Midgley "had more impact on the atmosphere than any other single organism in Earth's history", and Bill Bryson remarked that Midgley possessed "an instinct for the regrettable that was almost uncanny". Time magazine included both leaded gasoline and CFCs on its list of "The 50 Worst Inventions". <cite>streamofthesky posted [p:953287008] in Who is you...
