well what i said is right... i said they created a control system... not invented a control system since it is a system... they invented a "thing" that has a control system...

EVERYTHING IS THERE! You don't create things, you 'invent', but I prefer -- discover them.Keep an open mind people and don't let the naysayers impose a tyranny on your freethought. :)

wow... i cant beleive you can create a control system with only a string and a weight and moves without electricity force but by the force of the gravity... and you can control it because of its structure you know how it will be executed... without a remote control... this sure contributes a lot in robotic world...

The ancient Greeks were more aware of the human condition, than the Roman's were, and a lot smarter. The Greeks also created clocks, pneumatic motors, compasses. etc. The Romans were criminals, stealing ideas, enslaving or subjecting the people they conquered to various tortures. The Catholic cult, burnt down the Greek libraries everywhere, all across Europe in an attempt to control information that would invalidate their purpose, and being for existence, namely the assassination of Christ
