Considering each of these achievements during the time they happened, each for how significant to they were to the planet, and how complex a creation, what would be the greatest achievement of human history?

I went internet, and yes it sounds cheesy, but you can't put a price tag on information. You can be in contact instantly with most people on the planet if need be. I voted for the net, not just because of the life altering impact so far, but because so many possibilities are still out there, and there are so many ways it will alter our lives.

I voted Automobile. Why? To me there is no greater fusion of art, design & engineering than the automobile. It represents the most 'time put in' to any machine ever created. And because the auto industry is so young (say, just over 100 yrs.) the amount of progress made is monumental. The amount of people employed by the auto industry is high, and deep-rooted into the economy. I love cars. Now how come there was no vote option for '87-'95 Pathfinders? Just kidding.

 

Are automobiles mankinds greatest achievement? Or inevitable downfall?

 

For me though, Led Zeppelin/ACDC would be a close second.
