I need to write a paper on a technology invented/developed in Philadelphia like Baldwin Locomotive Works, or water works, etc for my history of technology paper. I am so confused, and 'googled' for it, but I can't find anything. Just a topic would be great? Please, I am desperate !!!

And I wrote my first paper on an invention by Ben Franklin. So, I need to base my second paper on anything not invented by Franklin.

Hey Farah,
Lucky for you Ben Franklin is from Philadelphia.

They say that in 50 million years, our era may be marked by nothing more than a thin layer of steel and concrete in the geologic column. Nobody's found anything like that yet, so I'm guessing the answer is "no". But I do get the feeling we're setting ourselves up for a cycle of boom and bust just like this.
