Hans Christian Oersted 1820

I heard it was Joe Tedesco.

Not true, this guy was the inventer, and he was showing us his new invention.



PS: I think Winnie got it right.

I hope he's not going to try and re-warm his burger-meal on those bus-bars; that could prove lethal. Food poisoning is a serious risk unless you achieve 145F!

Persian battery-pots for plating metals? Do me a favor, I didn't float down the Thames on a chocolate biscuit yesterday! Yeah, right, I know, aliens built the pyramids, and sailed across the Atlantic to S. America on straw bales etc. etc. etc..
My best guess on this question is; we will never really know, but my money is on still on Good Ol' Ben.

(PS. this thread has been posted before; see the posts on that too.)
