Greatest human achievement

[cilu]

I was wondering what people think about human achievements. I mean discoveries, inventions, or other things.

Despite all great things we have done, especially in the 20th century, I believe the most important of them all is toilet.

Well it seems to me that the greatest human achievement, up to this point, is
that enough of the buggers have been born, survived and reproduced that
