What did the irish invent and what did they not invent
Releasethe Krakken
1.Chemistry
2. Splitting an atom
3. Chocolate milk not milk chocolate although I think this one is bs as there was chocolate drinks by that time and what is more the weird thing is he discovered it in souuth america. so i call bs on this one.
4. Taking a color photograph making a color photograph - no .
5. Boycott
6.Induction coil
7.Seismology
8.Tattoo machine
9.Radiotherapy
10. The concept of a entrepreneur
11. The design of a modern submarine
etc etc check the full list in bottom link
Questionnable
1. Being slaves .
What did they not invent
1. Beer - sorry guys seems egyptians beat you to it- you deveoped extra stout
2. Soda water - definitely not!
http://blog.findmypast.ie/2012/02/29/inventors-series-robert-perceval/
robert perceval was apparently the first physician to use carbonated water for medicinal purposes .
we can see this sites makes yet another mistake and credit thomas henry with its creation whereas http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Henry_(apothecary) shows he was the first to manufacture it commercially.
3. Armored tank - seems the brits
4. Aircraft ejection seat - Romanian - you developed the first test not the first seat. Its weird I saw another site making this mistake.
5. Rubber soles - sorry the brits - and guy AC claim was then living in the usa.
6. Submarine - sub listed was first commisioned one by the royal british army and submarine was created 200 years before that. first modern submarine design -yes
This shows where Anthony Colby went wrong
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Irish_inventions_and_discoveries
Guinness developed a type of stout
First ejection test was developed by a Irish man
etc etc
Going further Go Ireland .com claims that Guiness is the top selling beverage of all times yet in 2013 the top 10 was
Top ten best-selling beers by volume in 2013:
1.Snow
2.Tsingtao
3.Bud Light
4.Budweiser
5.Skol
6.Yanjing
7.Heineken
8.Harbin
9.Brahma
10.Coors Light
IN FACT lets educate Go Ireland .com as you see Cr Snow who went to the top due to SAB modernizing its production was also the top brands in 2010 2009 and 2008 and accortding to this article
2011 article
All wrong. For the past three years, the world's top-selling beer is a pale, Budweiser-like brew that barely anyone in the West has ever heard of, let alone tasted. It is Snow Beer.
The Chinese drank 16.5bn pints of Snow last year, making it easily China's favourite and roughly twice as popular as Bud Light, the global beer from which it snatched the number one spot back in 2008.
But perhaps it just proves that the Irish cant count because as far as I know 365 * 10 million pints or 3 million pints did not even land you in top `10 and is so much less than the 16 billion the chinese consumed.
Furthermore that article contains emberarssing lies
1. There is no Robert percival of Ireland discussed in wikipedia. Its clear that that fact is a complete lie. Perhaps he invented the first soda bottle or cap but definitely not soda water.
Guiness has not nearly sales of 10 million a day. Most sites put their St Pat sales at 13 million and their normal sales at 5.5 million a year with 1.8 billion pints sold a year. Now compare this to Snow with sales of 16 billion from say the SAB takeover and transformation say in 2000 Then they would have sales of 16 billion for 15 years. Quick calculation 16 * 15 = 240 billion or in Guinness productions terms 133 years gained on you in 15 years and they and budweiser has been around for a long time. So how confident are we now about the most sold alcohol beverage of all times. In fact I am pretty certain budweiser would beat them hands down also.

u mad bro?
😠
no raven this is how normal people react to incorrect facts by presenting to the community the rights facts.
of course if one is on drugs one can accept that the irish developed soda water, the ejection seat, milk chocolate,rubber soles ,the submarine and the beverage most consumed in all times . one could probably tell this to your friends and if their also on drugs they could shake their heads in approvement for this cool facts which they dont doubt without any thinking.
One could accept 6 incorrect facts about the nation you share a heritage with if your on drugs. in fact you could also do this if its your home nation and your on drugs.
but no raven normal people like to know that the facts which they read is correct. because you see normal people speak to other normal people who also read up on stuff. so its important for normal people that the information you hand to the them and put in their minds be correct.
for normal people its important that other ppl do not laugh behind their back and that people do not say that raven is sure one daft irishman did you hear he thinks they developed soda water he he he.
unfortunatley i am on this rickety ship with you numbnutss so yes i geta bIT MAD IF YOUR 6 OUT OF 10 FACTS WRONG IN A 1 PAGE ARTICLE . IN FACT I GET SO MAD MY EYES TURNS RED AND THEN I ZAP NEARBY STUFF AND CAUSES MASSIVE FIRES. ROOOAWR
No. When normal people react to incorrect facts they "Oh well someone made a mistake".
They don't write several articles, comment over and over again and try to show how much smarter they are than everyone else.
did you research that fact or got it from some dude on the interwebs without checking it again?
ur a history professional i expect better history articles from u.
U mad bro?
XD
I will just say one thing. If you are using Wikipedia to fact check then you are in serious trouble.
the co founder of wikipedia had probems with people doubting their work so he implemented a new website that brought in measures that eliminated that. Only 100 regular users use that site and he had to quit it.
but wikipeida is great you can challenge info why dont you do just that AC. I cannot belief that you work in museums and dont even fact check quasi historical articles.
ye he mad bruv
ur both losers - why raven never runs for CP to guess its because your a loser. who knew. now that you discredited yourself perhaps find roles more suitable to your personalities - bah hear that the herd is calling you sheep

We invented European written grammar. Including the space between words, and the full stop....
Even that's debatable unfortunately....
south africa invented the fire the bed(comfortable sex) and the needle(which lead to clothing) you all just invented chemistry. and all was invented in the same cave. we invented the best stuff in the world 36000 years ago. we then invented space flight and travelled to a far away world but left some behind so that one day you can join us.
We all originated in Africa.....and left...so we invented emmigration 😃
i invented inventing stuff before me things just popped into peoples head like the wheel. uhmm round thing turns around. can i smoke signal a friend?
