gimme a break, i just woke up, my mind needs to get up to speed before i can read that much text, and given that most of it is from lompocus and ciwawa im not really sure if i wanna read it anyway

Nope, he was a US citizen, therefore, American.

By your meaning I would be German and Japanese, but I am not.

Meucci continued to work with ceaseless vigor on a project he had begun in Havana, Cuba, an invention he later called the "teletrofono", involving electronic communications.

so technically it would be a sort of bastard Child between Cuban, Italian and US 

[AmPM]

I was referring to Bell, but yes, all the same anyone that comes and becomes a citizen is now American.

[Jedi1]

But the guy didn't come from the US so you can't say without the US we wouldn't have it.

[jackmccrack]

Bell owes a lot of credit to the US Patent Office.

[Jedi1]

But the US paitant office didn't invent it so it's not an American invention.

Actually, depending on when he married his rich wife you could say that without her money he wouldn't have done much.

its starting to get a tiny bit ridiculous by now...

[AmPM]

The point is, most of the modern age comes from the USA. Deal with it =)

[Akranadas]

Actually, most modern age things we use today come out of Europe (specifically the internet; because American universities head thought it was shit) and Asia.

[Steinmarder]

take away german weaponry and technology from the us and the abrahams cant move or shoot

i beg to differ...want some examples ?
Car Engines -> German
Refigerators -> German
Televisions -> German
WWW -> CERN
Eleveators -> German
Jet & Rocket Technology -> German
X-Rays -> German
Electron Microscope -> German
Computers -> German(see Konrad Zuse)
Electric Motors -> British
EKG -> British
Locomotives -> British
Periodic Table -> British
Submariens -> British
Viagra(!!!!!!)    -> British
Modern Pencils -> French
Digital Calculators -> French
Sewing Machines -> French
Neutron Reactor -> Italy
Telescopes -> Italy
Nitroglycerin -> Italy
US Submarines after WW2 were also, for the most part, copied of the German XXI Class Sub. Modern Day Subs still look very similar to that Model.

these are just a few examples,but yeah, theres your source of the modern age "mostly" from the US.

[Cowtipper]

I once begun a discussion with someone who seriously thought that TEA was from the US...

He obviously has never heard of China...
He even thought that toiletpaper was from the US as well.. Japan doesn´t use toiletpaper anymore, they just use water instead.

[Ciwawa]

i think japan have an higer exp ratio of pc/card than germany maybe i-m wrong :O

The inventor of the actual product(s) can be whatever nationality, the point is that people's inventions become commercial in the USA.

Everyone knows Al Gore created the internet.

(thank you, I'm done.)

if by that you mean "people patent their stuff in the US so they can sue the crap out of anybody who had the same idea regardless of how trivial a patent is(double click patent anyone?)" then yes, you are correct.

if you meant anything else id just say its another display of the ignorance that is so typical for americans.

[TheDeadlyShoe]

Most inventions are developed simultaneously by several people, often with no contact with eachother.  Debating over who invented what rapidly becomes pointless.  Every major inventor could have fallen down a hole and the same thing would probably be invented by someone else ten years later.
