I totally agree with the electricity and wheel but I'll stick with the toothbrush! I know it kinda sounds funny and stupid but that was a really good invention.

I will say wheel cause wthout it men couldn't have made communication easier and without proper communication no other developments or inventions would take place at such rate as it did..Happy mylotting!

this is a excellent discussion,i think it's paper,it seems so simply that we often neglect it easy,,,but don't forgot that it has an enormous responsibility to make sure the culture still continue,the infiuences are profound and extensive. above just individual viewpoint,merry x'mas!

Electricity.. as if there was no electricity, then the most of the things we using now would have not existed.

hmm..i think ill stick with the wheel..without it,efficient transportation wouldn't be possible and civilization would expand at a very slow rate..it also is one of the basic technologies of our world and had it not been invented other technologies won't come out too..
