Try to answer?

Everything else will take a backseat to Jazz, Rock-n-Roll and the World Wide Web, but Wilbur and Orville have to be somewhere on that list.

Among other things - here are links to the complete patents of Thomas Edison and Nikola Tesla, which include most of the underpinning for 20th century technology, including alternating current, electric motors, radio, incandescent and fluorescent lighting and on and on:

The list is long, the Telephone, which is the precursor to the communication superhighway we have today. The light bulb. Industrialization. In music they are enormous, to begin with the electric guitar, multi track recording, the concept of effects for studio recordings, basketball, probably baseball.

Aaahh, Rachel Welch!!
