Since walking would appear to be more of a function of biological construct, and the ability to make marks on a stone or paper which have abstract meaning to other persons are an invention, one must conclude writing is the greatest invention of the options offered in the post.
Though perhaps the ability to construct abstract thoughts is man's greatest invention.
Once again, the ability to think abstract thoughts is probably a function of biological construction, and not mere invention.
I think Tony you might consider the possibility that the piece in its diminutive entirety is something more in the nature of humour than serious.
So were my comments.
I was being deadly serious.
If that is the case, then my comments were in dead earnest, and not the least bit funny.
