Well, yeah, I know, but since Elsa had already provided the article, i'd just stick with the basic stuff. XD

Gdeinward · Answer

LMAO. Makes sense.

Gdeinward · Answer

I wish he got more recognition. Most people I talk to don't know much about him, even don't know of him.

Eiwoh2 · Answer

Yeah, it seems many others get recognition for other inventions when he was also a special individual in history.

Gdeinward · Answer

You know he invented radio b4 Marconi did? He once attempted the government to invest in remote-controlled boats and even provided a demonstration. Keep in mind this was b4 Marconis famous transmission across the ocean.

Eiwoh2 · Answer

Oh wow. Yeah, I didn't know that. I guess it's because I haven't really looked deep into his story. But well, good luck writing your paper nevertheless. ^^
