importance of electricity

i was watching tv with my sis halfway when my whole house suddenly blackout...such a 'right' timing...it was just 5 mins to the end of my movie....good thing i still remember the title of dat show...hope they will show it again soon...

ok..the electricity...i didnt realise how important it is to me, esp at nite.....for the past hour, i had nth else to do besides walking around the house, rolling on my bed n playing with the torchlight n my own shadow while waiting for the electricity to come back on...i couldnt do wat i normally do at nite at this time....cant online, cant hunt mouse, cant watch tv....n the worse thing is, i cant even play talk on the phone! my hp ran out of batt n i couldnt charge it...:( wat a nite....wanted to revise my chinese, but i couldnt concentrate with insufficient light....gotta stress my eyes to read every single word...so i gave up...dat 1 hour felt like 10 hours to me....worse still, i couldnt sleep cause i slept the whole day!! guess dats the disadvantage of being nocturnal....

absence of electricity for an hour almost make me die of boredom....so im appreciating electricity n its role in my life now...which then makes me wonder, who's the creator/inventor of electricity? well, no one is!

Electricity was not invented by any one person, but its modern day use is the result of the work of inventors, scientists, and researchers, who toiled over the subject for millennia. - techFAQ

No one really "invented" electricity, but you can ask who discovered it. While people have known about the powerful effects of lightning for thousands of years, the first person to discover that lightning was a naturally occuring form of electricity was Benjamin Franklin. - wikipedia
