Edison demonstration of light bulb on December 31, 1879,

Latimer [the semi blackman] patent on January 17, 1882 for the "Process of Manufacturing Carbons",

The Edison Electric Light Company hired Latimer in 1884, as a draftsman and an expert witness in patent litigation on electric lights.




But to me the important discoveries about radiation were from Kirchhoff Planck, and Stefan-Boltzmann.

Since no one uses (incandescent) light bulbs anymore, who invented the the doo rag?

My Dad told me a German invented the lightbulb. Dad was good for stuff like that.

A German discovered America
A German invented the automobile
A German invented the airplane.

You name it. A German did it first.

He'd gotten all this from his father. He was trying his best to pass it on to me.

Lightbulb? Yep! Look it up! https://www.mysteriesofcanada.com/ontario/first-electric-light-bulb/

1854 – Henricg Globel, a German watchmaker, invented the first true light bulb. He used a carbonized bamboo filament placed inside a glass bulb.

Hate to disagree, but.
1. Vikings landed on America long before a German.
2. Maybe Phoenicians before them.
3. Indians before them all.

If we’re going to count any/all of things that are loosely described as an airplane, some guy in India may have beat them all.

The only way a dot indian could have done that is if someone pushed his bed off a cliff whilst he was still in it.

Fame and credit will usually go to the party that can deliver something new and useful to the general public.

And the Democrats have always looked out and cared for the poor Black man.............

yeah, the India airplane guy, I don't really believe, but have seen the report of it.

The Vikings and American Indians were definitely in America earlier and I tend to think the Phoenicians may have also. And, then there's the Polynesians.

Yup. They gave the blacks a job and a house starting back in 1619

And I bet the inventor of the internet - AlGore - was black too...

It's their number one Goal.

Did pre-France Frenchmen beat the Indians?

I'm not sure abut Clovis First, but I buy the Solutrean Hypothesis.

I think you're kind of missing the point. I'm not saying Dad was right, but the Germans always seemed to have a claim for everything. I used to do the same thing you are. Dad would always tell me that Germans did it. I'd try to argue. Mom would groan. When I got older, I found out the claims were at least plausible enough that a German schoolchild could have learned it that way. That would account for my grandfather filling the head of my father with all this stuff.

In this case, you've got the following

". . . America was so named by a German in about 1507, . . . it was a cartographer, . . . who did it. Mapmaker Martin Waldseemuller read a forged letter containing an exaggerated account of explorer Amerigo Vespucci's travels in the New World and drew a map based on this account. The map, a rough outline of South America, was included in his book "Cosmographiae Introductio," which also included the forged letter. He labeled this map "America," feminizing the Latin form of Vespucci's given name, "Americus." Waldseemuller chose the feminine form to be consistent with "Europa" and "Asia," existing Latin names with feminine endings. Geographer Gerhardus Mercator extended the name "America" to include all of the Western Hemisphere.


I tried this schtick on my three sons growing up, and they told me I was full of it.

You are doing better than I, my wife asked me what I wanted for tea/dinner tonight and I stupidly told her I didn't care as I don't follow women's sports.

After she finished throwing a wobbly I stuck my head in the kitchen and told her that I was just popping in to barrack for the team.

Not sure I am getting fed tomorrow.

Our beloved cousins in OZ and NEWZ provide no small amusement with their quaint speech. It amazes me that, considering they have spent their entire lives spinning about the solar system, upside down, I think they deal with it quite well.

Getting back to Joe Hiden...

Joe must be getting even more demented; he only ticked one "special interest" box with that statement. To be a true Democrat, he ought to have claimed the lightbulb was invented by a gay transsexual Black Jewish socialist.

Odd thought: If you have changed genders, to which base do you run? Either way, you have to be gay. Think about it.

Back in 2000 there was a television show documenting the most influential people of the last millennium.

Two Germans, Martin Luther and Johannes Gutenburg topped the list.

. . . and lets not forget Albert Einstein and Queen Victoria!

Biden and the rest of the Dems are fundamentally anti-White. Make no mistake, Biden is extremely dangerous. Rewriting history is a thing.

So now its Black Scientists for Biden.

LMAO!!!

Maybe they invented Motel 6 & 7-11

Biden's favorite comic is a black man.

Steve Martin.

Coloreds sure have come up in the world all of a sudden!!!

Have coloreds even invented the wheel in Africa yet?

#itsaniggersworld

Nope. They’re not that bright.

Pissin' on an electric fence until your nose glows doesn't count.

Bidens "how do it know " punchline got edited out apparently

Those sheer numbers could put him over the top!

Of course a Blackman invented the light Bulb... He saw it hanging over Edisons head in that little circle when Edison thought of something...

I bet all the people with dementia will vote for Slow Joe.

Well even Edison only “improved” the light bulb - historically carbon fibers were used with lights since 1802,
What’s more important is who did the work, and made it commercially viable to deliver it to the market.

But saying the light bulb was invented by anyone after the 1840’s is Bull Chit. (Edison’s improvement work was 1870-1905 ish)

https://www.bulbs.com/learning/history.aspx

now the guy Biden is talking about was really talented, and for that time in history must have been a Genius...
He worked for Bell (wrote tech parts on telephones, and even defended those patents later).
He wrote the first good book on doing elec. lighting.

Smart guy, ... but discrediting the guy (Edison) by saying he didn’t do the work he did is B.S.. and political.
Both guys worked and desire credit for what they accomplished.

Latimer got a half dozen patents, for anyone during the late 1800’s that’s pretty impressive.
Gee another politician mis-using facts for an agenda - isn’t that their job ?

AT THE END OF THE DAY - modern lightbulb fillets (tungsten based) replaced all that old crap around 1904 when tungsten became producible.
As an Engineer I hate the abuse of facts.

Well that is true... but with a little soap and water, it came off.... and he was white once again...

Joe Biden has the onset of Alzheimer’s and should be in a nursing home.

Ya can always tell a German....

From mud huts and schitting on the ground to electric lights... would love to see their hydro electric or nuclear power plants!

God bless 'em, it's their world!

g

Close first one was the arc light in 1804... at least that’s the origin of filaments.

George Washington invented Peanut Butter.........

George Washington Carver you mean ?

You just can't play along can you......

No, he didn't. Look it up, I'm too lazy.

Many did just that before Edisons patient. Edison worked on it for years. the hold up was finding a filament that would last more than hours or days. Tungsten was the key to Edison's success where others failed.

But you can’t tell him much...
I can say that, as I’m part German.

This all reminds me of the largest load of horschidt ever written, by the master apologist, Diamond. Guns, Germs and Steel. This crock was quite popular a few years back, in a nutshell, this guy Diamond tries to show that because of soil, climate, pests etc the sub saharan Africans were short changed. And by pure luck the world's first agricultural societies won the lottery of life. And then he compounds it by saying that because of the leisure time created by efficient agriculture, the "lucky" societies went on to invent little things like the wheel, advanced weapons, hygiene, steel...gaining an unsurmountable gap between the lucky (friggin' euro trash) ones, and the unlucky ones like the Yoruba. Even an ignorant ass such as myself can hardly wonder why some of the lucky ones then emigrated to unlucky continents and farmed their asses off for 500 years...or at least until the unlucky ones kicked them out, and in short order the unlucky ones had to begin importing food, or starving, which is what they are good at.

I invented the internet and that damn Al Gore stole my idea. Edk

Joe Hiden's "lightbulb" was turned OFF, years ago.

Biden was close...a black man invented the light bulb crack pipe.

Unfortunately for Joe, a light bulb has never turned on over his head.

LOL!

and it ain't even February....

How do you like getting lectured on history by a man that don't can't remember what he ate for lunch?

The inventive negro...

Go to chapter 4 and see 4 pages of fine print of all the studies of IQ is sub Saharan Africa.
It is an IQ of 70 and it has been tested many times.

That is better than Aborigines at 60 or pygmies at 55, but not as good as Jews at 110.

Ol Joe has a black (burned out) lightbulb over his head.
