Well, now that we've identify the best, let's look at the worst.

I personnally haven't given it much tought. However, I would probably go for the remote control. Though very usefull, it is very damaging to one's health. It promotes potato couches... bad, very bad.

The ball is in your court.

Have fun.

Yep, but that was the deal... used for peace... never thurst a governement agent coming after your knowledge in time of war... it's always to kill someone.

After giving more thought, I would agree to weaponry has being one of our worst invention.

As Einstein himself famously said

"If I had my life to live over again, I'd be a plumber."

Hmm, at least for my list I'd add pagers and possibly cell phones. Alarm clocls are evil too. All right, all right, they have a purpose, but those nasty ringy ones were invented by an experienced torturer. What about landfills? Were they such a great idea? And what about thongs? Yes, I know, various people (like men, for instance) like looking at them, but... have you worn one????? What logical underwear-type purpose do they serve??? And beware, ye thong-lovers out there, one of these days you will see a granny in a thong, and you may change your mind on the greatness of this invention. Fair warning!!!!!
