Cant be bothered to look at the list, but hopefully bling bling ear rings, trainers and tracksuit bottoms are also on the list ?

All you need to know about the intelligence level of the correspondents is that they cannot use a dictionary, since they think the iPhone is an invention. It isn't. It's a progression of a kind of invention. Personally, I have doubts about whether the mobile phone itself is an invention, being in essence another progression from wireless phones.

No room on the list for a plough.

Or the printing press.

It just goes to show, if you ask people what they think is the most important artefact in the world, 95% of them will just think of whatever they last used.

I hope those who got the flush toilet into ninth place washed their hands before using their touchscreen devices

Also, Beckham is apparently one of England's three greatest players in history.
