I heard a commercial for this company on the radio.

www.benfranklingplumbing.com

In this commercial, a man speaking as Franklin says I discovered electricity. Well, no. He had been experimenting with electricity for years before the famous kite experiment, as had scientists all over Europe. And unlike the Currier & Ives image his son William was 21 at the time.

I should not let this stuff bother me I know, but myth is myth and facts are facts, and the deliberate distortion of history grinds my gears. :banghead:
