Peanut Butter
Peanuts, which are native to the New World tropics, were mashed into paste by Aztecs hundreds of years ago. Evidence of modern peanut butter comes from US patent #306727 issued to Marcellus Gilmore Edson of Montreal, Quebec in 1884, for a process of milling roasted peanuts between heated surfaces until the peanuts reached "a fluid or semi-fluid state." As the product cooled, it set into what Edson described as "a consistency like that of butter, lard, or ointment." In 1890, George A. Bayle Jr., owner of a food business in St. Louis, manufactured peanut butter and sold it out of barrels. J.H. Kellogg, of cereal fame, secured US patent #580787 in 1897 for his "Process of Preparing Nutmeal," which produced a "pasty adhesive substance" that Kellogg called "nut-butter."

traffic light
The first known traffic signal appeared in London in 1868 near the Houses of Parliament. Designed by JP Knight, it featured two semaphore arms and two gas lamps. The earliest electric traffic lights include Lester Wire's two-color version set up in Salt Lake City circa 1912, James Hoge's system (US patent #1,251,666) installed in Cleveland by the American Traffic Signal Company in 1914, and William Potts' 4-way red-yellow-green lights introduced in Detroit beginning in 1920. New York City traffic towers began flashing three-color signals also in 1920.

Garrett Morgan's cross-shaped, crank-operated semaphore was not among the first half-hundred patented traffic signals, nor was it "automatic" as is sometimes claimed, nor did it play any part in the evolution of the modern traffic light.

Air conditioner
Dr. Willis Carrier built the first machine to control both the temperature and humidity of indoor air. He received the first of many patents in 1906 (US patent #808897, for the "Apparatus for Treating Air"). In 1911 he published the formulae that became the scientific basis for air conditioning design, and four years later formed the Carrier Engineering Corporation to develop and manufacture AC systems.


Lawn Mower
English engineer Edwin Budding invented the first reel-type lawn mower (with blades arranged in a cylindrical pattern) and had it patented in England in 1830. In 1868 the United States issued patent #73807 to Amariah M. Hills of Connecticut, who went on to establish the Archimedean Lawn Mower Co. in 1871. By 1888, the US Patent Office had granted 138 patents for lawn mowers (Butterworth, Growth of Industrial Art). Doubtlessly there were even more by the time Burr got his patent in 1899.

Some website authors want Burr to have invented the first "rotary blade" mower, with a centrally mounted spinning blade. But his patent #624749 shows yet another twist on the old reel mower, differing in only a few details with Budding's original.


Blood Bad..
Do you mean blood bank?

During World War I, Dr. Oswald H. Robertson of the US army preserved blood in a citrate-glucose solution and stored it in cooled containers for later transfusion. This was the first use of "banked" blood. By the mid-1930s the Russians had set up a national network of facilities for the collection, typing, and storage of blood. Bernard Fantus, influenced by the Russian program, established the first hospital blood bank in the United States at Chicago's Cook County Hospital in 1937. It was Fantus who coined the term "blood bank."

No. I'm asking for some of these technological inventions because I have faith in the negro race.

It seems, sadly, many of your negro invention claims have been disproven.

I beg of you, FIND ONE! I really want to know about it.

Ok, so I went on google and searched "Most important inventions"

The fourth result was [url]http://inventors.about.com/od/famousinventions/tp/topteninvention.htm

It lists the top 10 as:
The Telephone  
The Computer
The Television
The Automobile
The Cotton Gin
The Camera
The Steam Engine
The Sewing Machine
The Light Bulb
Penicillin


All of these are by the whites. Let's explain:

The Telephone - In 1875, Alexander Graham Bell(Scottish born) built the first telephone that transmitted electrically the human voice.

Anyone think he stole that from the negro or mongol? I don't think there are any people that deny this, so, I guess it's settled.


The computer - Nobody really invented "the computer," but many other computers have added to this great invention, improving it every time:

• The first computer - a machine which could do mathematical equations - was built as early as 1623 by the German scientist Wilhelm Schikard. He built a machine that used 11 complete and 6 incomplete sprocketed wheels that could add and, with the aid of logarithm tables, multiply and divide.

• In 1642, the Frenchman Blaise Pascal, invented a machine that added and subtracted, automatically carrying and borrowing digits from column to column. The 17th century German mathematician, Gottfried Leibniz, designed a special gearing system to enable Pascal's machine to do multiplication as well.

• The first programmable computer was developed in 1804 when the Frenchman, Joseph-Marie Jacquard, invented a spinning loom which used punched cards to program preselected patterns. Jacquard was rewarded by Napoleon Bonaparte for his work, but was forced to flee Lyon when he was attacked by weavers who saw themselves being replaced by his invention. His looms are however still used today, especially in the manufacture of fine furniture fabrics.

• The British mathematician and inventor, Charles Babbage, started building, but never completed, two astonishing computers called the Difference Engine and the Analytical Engine. The latter became the basis upon which all modern computers were developed. Babbage never managed to finish building his machines - although all the plans were completed - because of financial constraints. Many of the ideas surrounding Babbage's computers were recorded by his friend, Augusta Ada Byron, the daughter of the famous poet Lord Byron. Ada's conceptual programs for the Engine led to the naming of a programming language (Ada) in her honor. Although the Analytical Engine was never built, its key concepts, such as the capacity to store instructions, the use of punched cards as a primitive memory, and the ability to print, were taken by others and can be found in many modern computers.

• The German American, Herman Hollerith, developed a device which could electronically create and read the punched cards developed by Jacquard. Hollerith's tabulator was used for the 1890 US census, cutting the counting time to a quarter of the previous census time. Hollerith's Tabulating Machine Company eventually merged with other companies in 1924 to become the world famous IBM company.

• The precursor to the modern digital computer came in 1936, when the British mathematician Alan Turing developed the Turing Machine - a device looking like a typewriter that could process equations without human direction. From this machine the idea of buttons and keyboard for a computer was developed.

• In the 1930s, the American mathematician, Howard Aiken, developed the Mark I calculating machine, which was built by Hollerith's IBM. This electronic calculating machine used relays and electromagnetic components to replace mechanical components. Aiken also introduced computers to universities by establishing the first computer science program at Harvard University.

• During the Second World War, computer technology leapfrogged, with the British developing a massive analogue computer in secret to be able to read the encrypted German field signals.

• The first successful digital computer, the Electronic Numerical Integrator And Computer (ENIAC), was invented by the American, John Mauchly, at the University of Pennsylvania in 1945. Many of ENIAC's first tasks were for military purposes, such as calculating ballistic firing tables and designing atomic weapons. Mauchly and a partner formed their own company, and produced the Universal Automatic Computer (UNIVAC), which was used for a broader variety of commercial applications.

• In 1948, at Bell Telephone Laboratories, American physicists Walter Houser Brattain, John Bardeen, and William Bradford Shockley developed the transistor, a device that can act as an electric switch. The transistor had a tremendous impact on computer design, replacing costly, energy-inefficient, and unreliable vacuum tubes.

• From then on the science has leapfrogged: the development of integrated circuits in America in the late 1960s by a number of scientists enabled the miniaturization of the computer and led ultimately to the modern word processor and personal computer so common today.

The Television - Lee De Forest (1873-1961) designed a number of the earliest wireless radio and telegraph transmitters. His most important invention, however, was a type of vacuum tube that De Forest called the audion, and which today is known as the triode. The triode was the key component of all radio, radar, television and computer systems until its replacement by the transistor (made by 3 whites-Walter Houser Brattain, John Bardeen, and William Bradford Shockley) in the early 1950s.  

In 1884, Paul Nipkow(German) sent images over wires using a rotating metal disk technology with 18 lines of resolution. Television then evolved along two paths, mechanical based on Nipkow's rotating disks, and electronic based on the cathode ray tube. American Charles Jenkins and Scotsman John Baird followed the mechanical model while Philo Farnsworth, working independently in San Francisco, and Russian émigré Vladimir Zworkin, working for Westinghouse and later RCA, advanced the electronic model.  

The Automobile - The first self propelled vehicle, a three wheeled steam-powered engine designed to move artillery pieces, was developed in 1769, by the French Army officer Captain Nicolas Joseph Cugnot. The next steam engines were developed in England but soon were running on tracks, as with Richard Trevithick's successful engines.

Steam cars became popular in America during the very early 20th century, with the most famous vehicle being the Stanley Steamer, built by American twin brothers Freelan and Francis Stanley. A Stanley Steamer established a world land speed record in 1906 of 205.44 km/h (121.573 mph). Manufacturers produced about 125 models of steam-powered automobiles, including the Stanley, until 1932.  

The Cotton Gin - Eli Whitney. 'nuff said.

The Camera - In 1814, Joseph Nicéphore Niépce created the first photographic image with a camera obscura, however, the image required eight hours of light exposure and later faded. Louis-Jacques-Mandé Daguerre is considered the inventor of the first practical process of photography in 1837.

George Eastman (1854-1932) who in 1884 patented the first film in roll form to prove practicable; in 1888 he perfected the Kodak camera; in 1889, Eastman invented flexible transparent film, which allowed the development of the motion picture industry.

The Steam Engine - James Watt (1736-1819) was a Scottish inventor who won renown for his development of the first viable steam engine, a device which had originally been invented by the English engineers Thomas Savery and Thomas Newcomen. The first steam engines were thundering devices which were used to pump water from mines.  


The Sewing Machine - The first functional sewing machine was invented by the French tailor, Barthelemy Thimonnier, in 1830. In 1834, Walter Hunt built America's first (somewhat) successful sewing machine. Elias Howe patented the first lockstitch sewing machine in 1846. Isaac Singer invented the up-and-down motion mechanism. In 1857, James Gibbs patented the first chain-stitch single-thread sewing machine. Helen Augusta Blanchard patented the first zig-zag stitch machine in 1873.

The Light Bulb - Contrary to popular belief, Thomas Alva Edison didn't "invent" the light bulb, but rather he improved upon a 50-year-old idea. In 1809, Humphry Davy, an English chemist, invented the first electric light. In 1878, Sir Joseph Wilson Swan, an English physicist, was the first person to invent a practical and longer-lasting electic lightbulb (13.5 hours) with a carbon fiber filament. In 1879, Thomas Alva Edison invented a carbon filament that burned for forty hours. All inventors were white.

Penicillin - Penicillin was discovered by Alexander Fleming in 1928. Andrew Moyer patented the first method of industrial production of penicillin in 1948.


EDIT: Added sizes to the invention names for better organization.

You're way off, I'm gonna go light a cross and hang some niggers. Next, I'm gonna go down to the basement (which is just another trailer under mine) and take out the jews so I can put them in the oven.

Then, I'm gonna go bleach my robes and throw bombs at illegal Mexicans.
