Sorry old son. A Brit invention from WW2.

Try again.


The Americans got that 20 ton vacuum tube maintenance nightmare out of
a big air conditioned room and into your pocket. (the microchip being
the technology I was talking about).


If you want to go back 60 years, I would just go back 40 and point out

Before we get to how John Wayne won WW2, that was the Russians if
anybody.
Americans have always been good at buying/stealing our technology and

learn your history.
I don't know why you come up with all this crap when it's so easy to
check things out on the internet. *Did you never go to school? You
seem exceptionally uneducated even for an American.

of interest. In fact, not long since paid off the debt.

I don't know where you blasted Yanks get the idea from that you gave
us anything. All complete Hollywood ********.
