Well Vincent - perhaps you ought to add some British inventions:
The television
Football
Rugby
Cricket
Golf
The steam engine
The computer
Tennis (although it can be argued that is French)
Morse code
Radar
The jet engine
The hovercraft
The worldwide web
Vertical take off and landing
etc etc etc

There are ####loads more, but I canne remember any offhand

at this point, Kenny chips in with:
Imperialism
The concentration camp
etc etc :-P

I've wondered in the past actually, why there are not more Germans on AO. I guess one reason may be that there are already lots of good German Amiga sites (???)

What has an Amiga filesystem got to do with the British Empire - anyway, you're just jealous because the Danish empire is no more  :-P

@ Rodney

Correct me if I'm wrong, but AFAIK, the WWW was invented by Tim Berners-Lee, a British physicist working at CERN.

I happened upon this thread again, and I looked back fondly on how we conducted a conversation and it remained good-natured throughout, even though there was a bit of [friendly] stereotyping and international banter. Ahh, the good old days...
