Jules Verne or H.G. Wells?

considering they both started writing stories in the 1800's and are both credited with being the founders of sciene fiction its really hard to pick a favorite ...they both have so many great stories and have been the influence for many more modern authors...considering i just finished reading war of the worlds again at the moment i guess its H G Wells

That is the toughest question I have ever been asked. I would have to say Jules Verne, but I really don't want to because i really really like H.G. Well too.

For me, the scale tips slightly in Verne's favor, but only because I really like sea stories. 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea is one of my favorites.
