The invention that was most responsible for reducing the world to some small village

Few things in life are more fascinating than the aircraft. Created and invented by man, but much bigger than man. The invention that was most responsible for reducing the world to some small village. Other inventions have come and gone, like pet tags, some are still in use but the aircraft remains uniquely different.

Aircrafts was so big and so important an invention that there had to be a dispute as to whom the right inventor was. For years the Wright brothers were stripped of their rightful honor in a dispute that no smart NY lawyers would have gotten settled in any court in the land.

Fortunately honor finally went where it was due being much more precious to the high-school drop-out Wright brothers than investing in precious metals.

Even as we prepare to enter the era of A380s, hats off to the invention of the millennium.
