>They conclude that Edison's version was able to outstrip the others because of a combination of three factors: an effective incandescent material, a higher vacuum than others were able to achieve (by use of the Sprengel pump) and a high resistance that made power distribution from a centralized source economically viable.

henry ford didn't invent the car.
in fact, most inventions of the last 100 or more years can't be credited to a single person from a single country.
cars wouldn't work without a differential which was invented in france.
they wouldn't work without the wheel which was probably invented in africa or something.
henry ford was the first person to industrialize the manufacture of cars.

I guess I'm the only one who thinks its retarded to compare a country's inventive progress to that of a continent that has ~50 at any given time.
