3. Bulgarians invented the first electronic computer, digital watch and car air bag.
hmmm i think i read that in a FYROMian article 2 days ago...
u sure or did they ''borrow'' that too?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Vincent_Atanasoff
actually he was american and furthermore babbage developed the computer ok but lets give you the fact but still he was no bulgarian!
In the 1973 decision of Honeywell v. Sperry Rand, a federal judge named Atanasoff the inventor of the electronic digital computer.
4, 5, 6, 12, 16, 17 са излишни. Самият факт, че премиерът ни е пожарникар бие всяко едно от тях.
Да де, ама това е статия писана Септември 2011-а. По това време БСП беше на власт, от къде англичаните да знаят, че няколко години по-късно пожарникарчето ще стане пак премиер...
