I myself find the history of technology to be fascinating. You're free not to participate.
There are multiple answers to who invented the automobile and it is interesting to see what people think about it. I would think most Americans would say Ford and most Europeans would say Benz.
Same with the history of the radio which has such interesting answers as Marconi, Tesla and Alexander Popov. Most know Marconi, some know Tesla, hardly anyone knows Popov outside of Eastern Europe. All legitimate answers in my opinion.
And how about TV? Is it Farnsworth or Zworykin?
And the WWW? Would you go with Tim Berners-Lee or Al Gore?!
