One invention ...

[MadMachine]

You're heading out on a round trip in a time machine and you're allowed to bring one item and leave it behind with the neanderthals. You're allowed to teach them to use it, whatever. What is the one item that you think would have the most impact on their lives and therefore, the future of humankind?

The invention thread make me think of this, so blame that.

The problem with that question is that few inventions stand alone.

Example: gun (needs bullets), condoms (needs latex), bicycle (needs all kinds of parts), etc...

guns so humanity could wipe itself out that much earlier.

That's my point. What is ONE invention that you think could change the world and why.

Saying computer --> would need electricity.

I wouldn't leave anything in case I screwed up the spacetime continuum and destroyed the universe.

I'd give them those plastic things on the end of shoelaces, you know, so they dont get frayed ends on their shoelaces. That would change history a bit i'd say.

It's true, I lost mine a while back and it's slowly driving me toward a mental breakdown.

I'd bring them guitars.

A globe. That would have save a couple hundred years of exploring.
