Hey, I was thinking of a good question. Everyone can take a try at this.. You don't need lab bottles, rulers or calculators to answer this question. It's rather a fun topic. The question is this. Just think for a few minutes and you should have your answer or more than one.

What is your favorite invention in history?. Doesn't matter when it was invented. If you have more than one answer not a problem at all. If you have more than one favorite include your best top inventions. But try to think of at least one invention.

Here are a number of examples. . .1. TV set. 2 Automobile 3 Airplane 4 Vacuum cleaner. . I'm not asking to choose from these. I'm rather giving you four examples what I mean by inventions. .

Give your answer or answers. . Try to give your reason why you chose this answer. A reason doesn't have to be long. . Just enough to help the rest of us to understand why you chose your invention or inventions. That's how easy this post is. I'm sure there's some inventions you like. I'll start with my answers.

  1. My answers there's more than one. 1. The microwave. It's so convenient and it's faster to cook. Cooking on the stove is much better quality. But on days you or spouse don't want to cook then you can't live without the microwave.
  2. The telephone. It takes longer to walk to everyone's house. The telephone sure saves time. Some phones even allows one to talk to more than one person at a time.
3. The light bulb. Places would be too dark without light bulbs. Those old ancient lamps I suppose was harder to see in a room. You had to get close to one of these to read a book. With light bulbs we can read anywhere in the room.

These are my answers as I don't to steal anyone's idea. So choose your inventions or inventions and a simple reason why you like this invention.
 

The Contraceptive Pill to prevent unwanted pregnancies.. and to regulate women's menstrual cycles.. ( A Huge Boon to females )...

The Internet... for the Information super highway... and how would I have all these friends worldwide if the Internet hadn't been invented ?

The Microwave oven... for fast cooking .. no more slaving over stoves for hours every day, now we have a choice of fast food at home or not..

The Mobile Phone... contactable wherever we are in the world.. or not as we choose

The refrigerator.

The computer.

Another vote for the refrigerator/home freezer.

Both of my grandmothers grew up and started families before electricity and home refrigeration were common. I can remember when I was a kid going to the freezer plant in a nearby town where we rented a locker to store pork, beef, venison, etc…

In my lifetime I would say that inexpensive reliable birth control and the internet are the two biggest changes.
 
First is telephone and internet because then I'll always have contact with my brother.
Cars, cabs, and buses because I don't drive and they all have a way to get me from one destination to the next.
AC/Heater because I always need them for whichever season it's needed.
TV because not only for information but entertainment also.
Puzzle books to keep my mind active.
 
1. Tennis shoes because who could stand those sandals from ancient days.
Plus, because my Dr Scholl shoes corrected my balanced correctly.
2 winter jackets I wouldn't survive here in winter without it.
3 Tv I think I would be more stupid if not for TV and I didn't read books.
4 Radio Just because music will cheer you up.
5. Wheels because I used to like roller skating.
6. I have to agree with everybody about cooling and refrigeration, this includes fans, ac,
and refrigerators and icemakers.
7. The Amtrak train If I want to travel with anyone that's the most fun way to travel.
 
I always thought that it was the VHS player and tapes, and then of course the DVD player and the DVD disks. You were able to back in time and once again relive the experience of watching your favorite movies and/or television shows.
