invention credit
 

the recent threads on who invented a particular antenna sounded as
absurd to me as the following:


who invented radio ?
who invented TV ?
who invented the Super Zepp (thats easy. Lowbander did !)
who came out with the first transistor radio ?
who invented the helicopter or the airplane ?

my point is that there are very few inventions that are from one person
at one point in time. there are usually several at the same time and
who was first is usually an unfair question that takes credit away from
people.


maybe it is the first who got the publicity or someone took a liking
to.

let us reconize that there isn't only one smart peson in the world and
that several people CAN invent the same thing at the same time.

I agree, but you aren't the first person to point this out. :)

No, indeed... in fact, several people pointed it out at the same
time. I was
thinking he invented 'pointing it out'... but I see the error of my
thinking
now. :-)

Okay, but you aren't the first person to make this mistake. :)

GP32,

* I am having a flash-back to the 2004 Presidential Election.

A La Senator John F. Kerry:

I Had To "Invent It"
before . . .
I Could Un-Invent It :o)


* Or, a flash-back to the 2000 Presidential Election.

We all know that Al Gore did NOT "Invent"
the Low Noise Antenna 'design concepts' :o)
