thought provocing question!!! whose to say Darwin or Einstein are the best. Isn't this a matter of opinion okay? So these establish where we came from (Darwin) and the science to create nuclear energy and the atomic bomb (Einstien and Manhattan project during WW2). would a bomb be the greatest idea? What about the automobile or the radio or heck for the 19th century... the train? Just some thoughts.

I'm guessing Einstein's E=MC2 will be remembered as the greatest theory of the 20th.
