I wouldn't say the bicycle is the Best invention
FireFly90, Going for cars yes?.
Well sort of, but what i said about cheap i accualy do cycle to college rather than bus or car (mainly coz i only got my provisional licence today and coz it will be much more expensive to run). Where as i love the car i might end up going for a motorbike.

As for best inventions i'd say fire, it built (gradualy) the world we live in today.

Fire. Or SCIENCE!

Not really an invention, but whenever we stopped being opressed by religious leaders who squezzed every last penny out of us under their pretense of 'God's work'. Bastards
I thought this forum was above bashing religion. Obviously not.
Ah, but you see I dislike religion, or at least what people use it to do. Not necessarily putting hate on all religion here, but more so on the peole who use it as an end for their own self-promotion. When we started to stop listening to these people, we suddenly discovered innovation, sending us flying forward along the technical ladder. Also, it has caused so many problems. Extremists (which frankly exist for everything, but religion has the most noticable effects) and people promising the promised land, causing two groups rabibly and blidly driven by reality to start blowing each other up and murderiing each other. Wars fueled by religion are the most bloody of all. God is an ideal which man created to sheild himself from the scary parts of the world. People then used God as an excuse to do horrible things and impose their values upon others. This became known as religion.

I'm cool with God, but not religion. Catch my drift?

I'd say that the bicycle probably is the best invention ever. I mean, it most likely paved the way for other inventions such as the car/motorcycle etcetera, both of which are widely used inventions today.

the greatest invention in the world is the Thermas Flask
(the masses):
but Jim, why? all it does is keep hot things hot and cold things cold?

Jim:
Yes, but how does it know?
I believe the correct term is "How do it know?" (That's from something. I don't remember what.)

Anyway, whoever invented pornography gets a gold star from me. Not that that takes much inventing. Not any inventing at all, actually. Still useful though.

I would say that fire, then the wheel, then the Renascence, then the Industrial Revoultion, then the Technological Revolution, now we are coming into the Esoteric Revoultion, I mean, you guys did just elect Obama, and we just recently said sorry the native Australians. It's coming together for 2012 when...


Sorry, off topic. Fuck bikes.

The internet. Worldwide communication and interaction for the win.
Looks like you right but can I really define the internet as an invention, is it an entity in its own right or is it just a description? Was it an accident? Sure its inventive and only one has ever been manufactured or am I just being pedantic. New option added.

Two words: Elastic underwear

Yes, back in the days of Ghengis Khan, Jesus and John McCain, citizens were forced to wear either wooden underwear (splinters) or metal underwear (chafing). This lead to such conflicts as the 100 Years War, The Franco - Prussian War, and the foundation of the Republican Party.

Why didn't they use cotton, wool or leather, like they did for their other clothes?

The bicycle is a terrible invention. It has given the world an ever growing army of self righteous wankers who feel that they are above normal society due to their innability to drive a car.

Assault weapons have done way more for the world than the bicycle ever will and assault weapons are useless in a rational society. ergo bike rider are worse than useless.
