The printing press

Didn't any of you study history?



Yes, but through word of mouth, not your heretical "books".
Treize (pronounced 'trays')- because 'Treisprezece' is too long and even harder to pronounce.

my dad has worked for Sanders Acc for 40 years now, they were owned by lockheed at one point. he said they were the worst head up their arse group of bureaucratic morons he had ever had to deal with! but that their techs and engineers where some of the greatest guys on the planet.

1)WWII (Atomic Bomb)

2)WWI (New type war bieng fought i.e. planes, tanks, trenches, 'no-mans land')

3)Cable Television :) (simple things such as cable television helped raise the iron curtain of the soviet union, once communist russia sees the freedoms of america it leads to a freedom act in russia.)

4)ColdWar-Arms/Space Race (Gives birth to new technologies that enhance the security of our country. i.e missle defense systems[STARWARS] and sattelites.

5)Stalingrad (The battle at stalingrad showed the world that Hitlers war machine could be defeated; was a point in WWII that Allied morale and the war turned in its favor.)

6)Mark Edens ( I changed the world in showing that suaveness has no limits :cool: )

uhg i dont have time to think about the rest... Ill just say these are the top 6 things that 'I' think changed history
