Alexander Graham Bell (March 3, 1847-August 2, 1922) was a Scottish scientist and inventor who immigrated to Canada. Today, Bell is widely considered one of the foremost developers of the telephone, together with Antonio Meucci, inventor of the first telephone prototype, and Philipp Reis. Six years after having obtained his telephone patent, he became a naturalized citizen of the United States. In addition to Bell's work in telecommunications technology, he was responsible for important advances in aviation and hydrofoil technology. Come and explore the life of Alexander Graham Bell.

    Alexander Graham Bell invented the BELL telephone

  • Alexander Graham Bell did not invent the telephone. Meucci invented it but he did not have enough money to afford it. Graham Bell saw his idea and copied it.

  • @romanpr1nce Your Jeering is out of context, you jeer when you win. You have lost on every point. Again deal in Facts, Canadian government proclaimed Bell was the inventor of the Telephone, that is a fact. Another fact is the italian can't produce any version of a telephone that worked. Another fact you refuse to say if you are italian. Just for your benefit, when you use words like "Da" it make you look like a fool, but I am sure you are used to that.

  • @midnightmoses100 Oh special child...wow. "Da argument" was meant as a form of jeering. In other words I'm mocking your stupidity, and you failed to even understand that... There is no hope for you. At least you tried.

    "You can't read and you won't read history"

    No dummy, you apparently can't string a coherent argument together. Nor tell the difference between fantasy and reality. You've created your own picture of history based on a retrospective lack of information which has now been established to be false by...guess who...historians.

    "Again you don't answer my question, Are you italian,"

    Ah, this is indeed an ethnic pride issue for you. This underlies the basis for your argument.

  • @romanpr1nce You can't read and you won't read history. I told you the Canadian government proclaimed Bell invented the telephone, this is a fact look it up. Again you don't answer my question, Are you italian, no you don't answer because we know you are and that is why you want this italian guy to be the inventor, instead of worrying about italians inventions, learn how to read and write english. "da argument". Please do everyone a favor and keep your opinions to yourself.

    "you don't win an arguement is call someone dumb ass...Now go and fuck your boyfriend italian style"

    I meant to call you a retard, but I don't believe in calling people with mental retardation retarded. I'll tell you what you want to here from now on. YOU WIN DA ARGUMENT YAAAY, here's an imaginary gold star.

  • @romanpr1nce You didn't answer my question, are you italian, and they way you don't win an arguement is call someone dumb ass. Again italian americans pressured the us house and they recognized him "for his work" not inventing the telephone, the Canadian government already recognized Bell as the inventor. Look up wikipedia and you will see small boy that I am giving you a history lesson you dumb italian. Now go and fuck your boyfriend italian style

  • @midnightmoses100 "the US congress was pressured by italian american organizations to recognize the italian but most disagreed with the House of Representatives resolution."

    No it wasn't dumb ass.

    You may look up the history of the telephone ( telettrofono) if you wan't, but I doubt you ever will. The resolution stated that "if Meucci had been able to pay the $10 fee to maintain the caveat after 1874, no patent could have been issued to Bell."

    He invented it, he couldn't patent it. Move on.

  • @romanpr1nce One other thing for you to note, the US congress was pressured by italian american organizations to recognize the italian but most disagreed with the House of Representatives resolution.

    The Government of Canada responded ten days later by unanimously passing a parliamentary motion stating that Alexander Graham Bell was the inventor of the telephone. Now tell me again could you have a conversation on the italians invention? answer NO, so it is not a telephone.
