Why did so many revolutionary inventions issue from early twentieth century America?

[blobfish]

Many very important innovations came from America around the turn of the twentieth century. The phonograph, film cameras, assembly lines, the light bulb and radio, to name a few. Why was it, in your opinion?

Aliens.

Aliens.

The Roswell crash was responsible for giving us the technology necessary for mass-produced televisions and fiberoptics, but what about before?

Wrong century.

Area 51 brought us Independence Day. Sheesh, didn't you see the movie?

That was purely fictional.

Autobots are wimps.

I still gotta get me one of those alien fighter space ships. My bucket list is growing.

I've long been a supporter of transformers. If those robots want to change their sex, that's their decision.

So, your bucket list has grown to include erotic lactation and alien hovercrafts.

Transformers are very real. I used to have one as a paperweight.

So was Orson welle's Martian attack, but people died anyway.

Did you mean Wells' or Welle's?

Add that Bumble Bee/Camaro transformer to the list. I want a car like that too, but I doubt even Government Motors can make one of those w/our bailout money.

Because the German or French invented it first, but found nobody for marketing.

 

[Tryharder62]

I think because education was available to more people. I also think that ideas could be shared easier.

The Germans and French were too busy colonizing Africa to invent anything useful.

Probably. Orson Welles. not George Orwell. I've been reading orwell on the kindle, haven't read welles for years.

No, you're wrong. We're invented the whole shit. we invented cars, TV, fax, LCD, the rocket and the basics of the B2 bomber, just to name a few.

But we were never good in marketing.

The link didn't load for me. Think of the times. Few people had TV and those that did were watching a regular series about martians simultaneously w/Orson Welles radio show. Welles' was presenting his radio show on the fictional invasion as news bulletins to add more realism. People panicked. There were limited real time options on information then.

Wells is good if you overlook the glaring socialist metaphor underpinning every other sentence. It's strange that both men (Wells and Orwell) identified as socialists while holding such opposing viewpoints.

You're good at marketing tennis shoes, though.

Explain how you can read a confirmed hardcore socialism is the coming wave to save the planet book while ignoring the socialist dogma in every other sentence?
