>And as you may know, it took European inventiveness to put a practical use to paper, i.e. the printing press that actually isn't true. believe it or not, the chinese actually invented the first printing press, too. europeans are responsible for movable type, not the printing press itself. and, johannes gutenberg, who is generally thought to have invented moveable type, didn't. he merely invented a new alloy used in movable type blocks. it's actually this kind of egoistic attitude not based on fact that causes a lot of countries to think of the US as a nation of belligerent hegemonists: "we made everything." so untrue.
