airplane french

Answer 1

atomic bombs
great idea
thanx loads

Answer 2

The airplane ISN'T FRENCH you Ignorant fool. Just because they flew it in France for the first public demonstration DOESN'T give the French credit for it. They had to TAKE IT APART and SEND IT TO FRANCE and THEN put it back togther. It was AMERICAN. Oh and the English were FAMOUS for obseity way back. The only difference was they claimed if you were fat it meant you had money. They were OBCESE before us though. The INTERNET is AMERICAN. Sorry but there is a REASON the U.S. controls it. See the first message sent over computers by what was the forerunner to the World Wide Web was done in AMERICA. Also Pizza is AMERICAN. ok so it is a food not a product, but you are calling obcesity an invention. Sure it was INVENTED by Italian-AMERICANS but it was invented in AMERICA. People just THINK it was Italian. They missed a product from home that was similar and invent Pizza. The Cotton Gin is distinctly American, and the same man invented INTERCHANGABLE PARTS. One of the MOST IMPORTANT inventions in history.

ANDERSON, MARY
The windshield wiper was invented by Mary Anderson in 1903 to help streetcars operate safely in the rain. In 1905 she patented her invention, which allowed the car operator to control the external, swinging arm wipers from within the car. Windshield wipers became standard equipment on cars a decade later. Anderson was from Alabama, USA
BLOOD BANK
The idea of a blood bank was pioneered by Dr. Charles Richard Drew (1904-1950). Dr. Drew was an American medical doctor and surgeon who started the idea of a blood bank and a system for the long term preservation of blood plasma (he found that plasma kept longer than whole blood). His ideas revolutionized the medical profession and saved many, many lives. Dr. Drew set up and operated the blood plasma bank at the Presbyterian Hospital in New York City, NY. Drew's project was the model for the Red Cross' system of blood banks, of which he became the first director.

BRAILLE TYPEWRITER
The Hall Braille typewriter (also called a Braillewriter or Brailler) was invented in 1892 by Frank Haven Hall. Hall was the Superintendent of the Illinois Institution for the Blind. The Hall Braille typewriter was manufactured by the Harrison & Seifried company in Chicago, Illinois, USA. Hall introduced his invention on May 27, 1892, at Jacksonville, Illinois.

BURBANK, LUTHER
Luther Burbank (1849-1926) was an American plant breeder who developed over 800 new strains of plants, including many popular varieties of potato, plums, prunes, berries, trees, and flowers. One of his greatest inventions was the Russet Burbank potato (also called the Idaho potato), which he developed in 1871. This blight-resistant potato helped Ireland recover from its devastating potato famine of 1840-60. Burbank also developed the Flaming Gold nectarine, the Santa Rosa plum, and the Shasta daisy. Burbank was raised on a farm and only went to elementary school; he was self-educated. Burbank applied the works of Charles Darwin to plants. Of Darwin's The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication, Burbank said, "It opened up a new world to me."

CARVER, GEORGE WASHINGTON
George Washington Carver (1865?-1943) was an American scientist, educator, humanitarian, and former slave. Carver developed hundreds of products from peanuts, sweet potatoes, pecans, and soybeans; his discoveries greatly improved the agricultural output and the health of Southern farmers. Before this, the only main crop in the South was cotton. The products that Carver invented included a rubber substitute, adhesives, foodstuffs, dyes, pigments, and many other products.
