    Whats your top 10 list of human inventions and why? Try to go off the top of your head, I think that makes this more fun and interesting.

    Here is mine:

    10. Refrigerator - Without this we would have to hunt for things on an almost daily basis, and if that were the case most of us would not survive just because the shortage of supply.

    9. Telegraph - This allowed us to spread information across the world at a timely rate instead of waiting days,weeks,months in the mail.

    8. Printing Press - Without this people would still have to write every single book by hand.

    7. Electricity - I think this is pretty obv.

    6. Medicine/Vaccine - Allows us to not die from many diseases or simple sicknesses.

    5. Alphabet - Not necessarily just the alphabet but any type of writing that allowed someones thoughts to be read across the world.

    4. Clothing - We couldnt not survive to many environments without the protection of big heavy jackets or back in the day animal skins.

    3. Language - Very important, without this we could not communicate exactly what we intended, whether it be some type of immediate danger or our emotions.

    2. Wheel - Pretty standard, we could not move any large objects without the wheel.

    1. Fire - We just couldnt survive without this one.

    This is true but I think the fact that sum1 discovred how to harness the power of fire was what I was trying to get at. Same for electricity.

    Computers are pretty notable but without some of the things on my list we couldnt survive and others we woudnt have the knowledge to make a computer. Although I dont know if I personally could survive without a computer lol =).

    the list says top 10, not most necessary or most needed to live or w.e... the computer/internet is the most significant invention in the history of the world

    This is true im not trying to defend myself or bash you, its all opinions, but in my own opinion stuff for survival is more significant than all this cool shit we get with teh interwebz.
