    Our greatest achievement is the advanced technology for skin graphing for burn victims.

      democracy - it protects terrorists who immigrate from other countries and criminals get a better deal than their victims.

    I think our greatest achievement without a doubt is our level of awareness. I think our awareness allows everything else already mentioned.

    The question is what is our achievement?
    Our achievement has been manifold. World has become a global village. Science and Technology have brought a revolution. Awareness has multiplied in many fields. Exploration has been tremandous. This is positive. We have lost tolerance. Balanced progress has not been made in body and soul. The role of the man on the earth requires to be so disciplined that digity of mankind is maintained at all costs. Human Rights are honoured and paid. May Blessing be on the entire humanity.

    Genome sequencing is fantastic. I think the computers that crunched all that scientific data are pretty high on the list too.

    It seems that science, especially medical is growing now at an amazing rate due to computers. What would take 10 years to achieve 10 years ago can be done in minutes now because of them. smile

      Well if we don't destroy ourselves first, mapping our proteome (an assay of all human proteins) might be it. Mapping our genome is just the beginning.
