    This is lended to by the fact that in children’s books and schools in the USA Edison was portrayed as some magical fictional character who tied a key to a kite to invent electricity.

    That story is associated with Benjamin Franklin.

        I did not. Maybe there was a delay due to federation stuff making it seem like that. Or maybe you edited it after I loaded the page but before I posted.
