	some issues with that - Bell did not invent the telephone although it has been widely credited to him. The real players were Antonio Meucci, Innocenzo Manzetti and Elisha Gray. Champagne was a British invention - the French did not have the glass technology at the time to create bottles to contain the wine. Dom Perignon only improved the quality of the wine. The Car was invented by Karl Benz (if you stay with fossil fuels due to a Belgian missionary creating a Be) Ford is one of the people credited with the invention of mass production. Finally please change the colour scheme of the inventors - It is not clear.

	Re the car the aside should continue to say that Ferdinand Verbiest invented a car like vehicle to get around China in 1672 using steam power. If this is to be believed http://wiki.answers.com/Q/The_inventor_of_the_Car

	Nobody "invented" DNA, and numerals and decimals existed before the above listed inventors. Same with bicycle; Starley created perhaps the first "modern" bicycle, but not the first bicycle period. Aqua-Lung or aqualung should be accepted for scuba.

	^ exactly. If Leonard Pisano (or Leonardo di Pisa or Fibonacci) had invented the numerals that we use today, we would call them "Italian numerals" and not "Arabic numerals" (actually they were invented in India, but they became known in Europe through the Arabs).

	Henry Ford did not invent the automobile. He is known for making the car affordable due to his production methods. The automobile (as we know it) began development in the mid to late 1800s in France and Germany. Renault and Benz, among many others were instrumental in this development.
