Andre Ampere
« on: January 22, 2013, 1632 UTC »
Today's the anniversary of the birth in 1775 of Andre Ampere, the French scientist who founded the study of electrodynamics. The very next year the American colonies decided to re-volt.

Andre promptly invented the time machine ,went to the future and saw how electricity would be used to enslave mankind and make  a very few ,very wealthy . Went back to 1775 told George Washington who wanted a piece of the pie and voila  ! But nobody ever prints the truth in the school books  ;D
