Who filed a patent for the telephone on the same day as Alexander Graham Bell? Why isn’t he credited for the invention?
I am not going to Google this (Daddy’s Home reader’s honor, and you can’t do better than that). Didn’t Bell bribe some patent clerk to make sure the other patent got delayed? As to who got shafted, no idea at all.
Don’t you mean re-invented?
Too early for such a tough question, Tony! You have to stop doing this before I have my first cup of coffee!
I don’t think the world is ready for this new and revolutionary way to communicate… ;) ups, just tripped over the cord of my phone…
@Tony RubinoBy the way how do you mis-Dial on a pushbutton phone?
Good question.
