1. Birth Control Pill (we take it for granted, but imagine a world without it...wait I was raised Catholic, I don't need to)
2. AC electricity: AC is better than DC. AC is Tesla, DC is Edison...suck it Edison, Tesla pwns j00! Tesla was so much cooler than Edison, he was better looking, he had better gadgetry, and his name sounds cooler.
3. The Pike Square: Yeah, I count military ideas as inventions. This is what began the erosion of the old European nobility. A warrior in armor on a horse was a tank, until he met a band of Swiss peasants with big sticks. You wouldn't think it was so important, but the use of pikes in organized formation removed the advantage of the heavily armed and trained nobles, and gave power to the lower classes. A bunch of guys with no armor and a bunch of really long sticks with sharpened ends, working together, can resist the charge of Europe's most glorious and decisive combatants. Thank you Phillip, Alexander the Great's father for giving us the pike, and thank you Swiss Confederacy for honing that weapon into a force that signalled the death of the First Estate...as well as your fine chocolate and cuckoo clocks.
My heart says: D&D! (Thanks Gygax, TSR, SSI & Black Isle) (so computers are good because of games like D&D & smaller siblings)
My head says: Shelters + beds & all those goodies for comfort, security and rest.
My bellie: Chocolate!
But I want to encourage the NASA, keep going guys, you may find something vital for all humanity! I wish I can help you, but fact is, I would annoy you more than anything so I will just send positive thoughs and annoys SoE instead!

Probably Antonio Meucci's invention of the telephone in 1860.
I though alexander bell invented the telephone
I was waiting for someone to say that (as I am sure Kiamde was too). Bell didn't invent it. He "borrowed" the idea and was the first to patent it, therefore stealing the "inventor" title.

I'm guessing the first printer went like that too. Did they wanted the fame or to spread the word?

take what you can but not what isn't yours. "fight to the end and never give your enemy the satisfaction of victory"
1) Birth Control (all forms, via pill, injection, rubber, whatever). There'd be waaay too many more humans in this world without it. (especially another one of me, but there's only room enough in this world for one.)
2) Computers, no need to say more
3) Spell Checking. It's just too bad people don't use it.

The porta potty, without it how would people go to the restroom in the middle of no where and besides going behind a tree or bush is so last decade!

1) Condoms need I say more
2) Computers With out computers, there would be no BF2 or EQ2.... but then again, the world would be with out Blizzard and WoW....
3) Condoms wait, I said that already
1- Language, without it, we would be chimps.
2- Writing, without it, we would never learn what we know today.
3- The Nuclear Bomb, it will either dam us to a well deserved extiction or force us to look for a more peaceful and cooperative existence.

steam engine..brought ito the industrial revolution...
printing press
electricity==well the ability to use harness its power
Good,Bad, I'm the guy with the gun!-Ash

Yes, the printing press is quite nice.
Electricity is quite nice as well, however, (like was already mentioned) it isn't an invention.
Microwave - definitely up there.
However, I think the best invention EVER is music. gotta give kudos to the dude who started tapping his foot and was all "oooo good sound!"
1. Music -without it, the crickets would have driven everyone insane a long time ago.
2. Language in all its forms although one standarized language would be nice (and l33t speak isn't a language!)
3. Automobiles -how else would you cruise for chicks? a wheel barrow?
Invention of the Wheel.
Harnessing and use of Fire.
Harnessing and use of Electricity.
Self-explanatory.

contraceptives
1) interchangable parts = without this nothing woud fit onanything and everyone would be extremely frusturated.
2) writing = without writing we couldnt really do anything.
3) phones = cause you could talk to people you knew far far away.
The Bukakke Tarp. Before this invention, my floors got way too messy...
