Australia doesn't make the list? We invented the boomerang! makes hunting so much easier while riding our kangaroos.

 

 

Didn't you guys invent the rotary washing line too? Where would we be without those, eh?

 

That we did, but I think our contributions to medicine are probably the most significant.

 

- Penicillin

- Bionic Ear

- Aspro

- Spray on Skin

- Zinc Cream

- Ultrasound

- Latex Gloves

- Flu Vaccine

- Night and Day contact lenses

- Heart Pacemaker

- Anthrax Vaccine

 

to name a few, and we pioneered microsurgery.

 

Some of other inventions/discoveries/innovations include...

 

- Combine Harvester

- The Sarich Engine

- Wave Piercing Catamaran

- Differential Gears

- The 'Ute' (which is different to the 'pickup truck' developed in the USA)

- Black Box Flight Recorder

- Variable Ratio Rack and Pinion Steering

- Hyshot Scramjet Engine

- Electric Drill

- Two Stroke Lawn Mower

- Notepad

- Telephane (yes Telephane, not Telephone)

- Garage Roller Door

- Salt Water Chlorination of Swimming Pools

- Pre-paid Postage

- Xerox Photocopying

- Polymer Bank Notes

- Blast Glass

- Refrigeration

- Vegemite (controversial topic as of late since the iSnack 2.0 incident)

- Wine Cask

- CETO Wave Energy System

- Calyx Drill

- Uniloc Software Protection (which after Microsoft copied, lost approx half a billion for stealing the technology)

- Wireless LAN IEEE 802.11

- Samba Software

- Google Maps (developed by a couple of Danish-Australian brothers in Sydney, believe it or not)

- Feature Films (The Story of the Kelly Gang, 1906, ran for more than an hour)

- The Australian Crawl

- Race Cam

- Speedo Swimwear

- The Mills Cross

- Gene Shears

- SILEX

- Synroc

- The Stobie Pole

 

 

we all invented our own language individually, with the exceptions of USA and Australia which stole ours.  :o  lol

I can't speak for the USA, but we improved it :P

The solution to this debate isn't to ask a bunch of people who have the potential to be biased and uninformed. If anything, the poll will represent the biggest misconception or popular opinion. You should do some research.

 

I have done research, almost everywhere I looked it is based on opinion.
