This is a beautiful morning fit to look back at history and admire some of the men from the past:
Like Alessandro Volta.
Count Alessandro Giuseppe Antonio Anastasio Volta (February 18, 1745 - March 5, 1827) was an Italian physicist known especially for the development of the electric battery in 1800.
Or Alexander Graham Bell.
Alexander Graham Bell (3 March 1847 - 2 August 1922) was a Scottish scientist, inventor and innovator.
Recognized as an eminent scientist and inventor, Alexander Graham Bell is most often associated with the invention of the telephone.
And Alfred Bernhard Nobel.
Alfred Bernhard Nobel (October 21, 1833, Stockholm, Sweden – December 10, 1896, Sanremo, Italy) was a Swedish chemist, engineer, innovator, armaments manufacturer and the inventor of dynamite.
Or Blaise Pascal.
Blaise Pascal (June 19, 1623 – August 19, 1662) was a French mathematician, physicist, and religious philosopher.
Inventor of the (early computer) mechanical adding machine.
And Guglielmo Marchese Marconi.
Marconi (25 April 1874 - 20 July 1937) was an Italian inventor, best known for his development of a radiotelegraph system.
Unfortunately a fascist later in life as well.
Or Heinrich Rudolf Hertz.
Heinrich Rudolf Hertz (February 22, 1857 - January 1, 1894) was the German physicist and technician for whom the hertz, an SI unit, is named.
He devised a transmitting oscillator, from which electric waves were made to radiate.
And Louis Pasteur.
Louis Pasteur (December 27, 1822 – September 28, 1895) was a French chemist best known for his remarkable breakthroughs in microbiology.
Or Michael Faraday.
Michael Faraday, (September 22, 1791 – August 25, 1867) was an English chemist and physicist (or natural philosopher, in the terminology of that time) who contributed significantly to the fields of electromagnetism and electrochemistry.
He was the founder of the science of electromagnetism.
And Samuel Morse.
Samuel Finley Breese Morse (April 27, 1791 – April 2, 1872) was an American painter of portraits and historic scenes, the creator of a single wire telegraph system, and co-inventor, with Alfred Vail, of the Morse Code.
All these men used their heads and came up with great inventions influencing the existence of humankind.
These days we live in a time we still need great inventors.
Although we as humans have become sophisticated in many fields, some issues we continue to struggle with because no proper inventions have been made yet to stop those issues bothering us.
Fervent and loyal blog readers are invited to send in their suggestion what would be the great invention everybody is waiting for.
Like the total worldwide eradication through genetical manipulation of the mosquito.
That this useless and dangerous animal dies out completely.
We are also waiting for a way to store energy in a better way.
Now we need batteries that are heavy and inefficient.
Please, a device as small and light as a matchbox containing at least as much energy as a truck battery.
Mobile phones that can communicate directly with each other worldwide for free.
Ice-cream that cannot melt.
What would the fervent and loyal blog reader welcome as a life improving invention?

Yikes, dude!
I love progress.
I salute those who have given us spirituality. Given us democracy. Given us the right to improve ourselves (you know, capitalism).
That would include those, like YOU, who show us how to appreciate the world and do it off the grid.
But...please, PLEASE...do not take away ice cream. Its meltdown keeps us from, yeah, MELTING DOWN.
