ummm, maybe you haven't heard of Heron Of Alexandria then. he invented the steam engine hundred of years before it was reinvented in mind 1800's. he just never made the connection between the engine and what it was supposed to do, so he just used it as a recreational toy. also he kinda dicovered the first computer and also made some mechanical clocks that would rival with most of today's atomic clocks. Also some of his mechanical devices are still buffling engineers nowadays. think about what would have happened if he actually used his inventions more than 2000 years ago.
