Top Ten Things That Happened On June 15th

The Top Ten
1 Epekov Born (2002)

He's been gone for a while, but I just remembered that it's a birthday for one of TheTopTens' most underrated members.

Epekov was definitely underrated; funny and intelligent. I wish him a very Happy Birthday.
Nice list, Pos!

I would like to wish him a happy 12th birthday

2 Benjamin Franklin proves lightning to consist of electricity (1752)

@funnyuser
You're probably confusing this experiment with the discovery of electricity. Electricity was long discovered earlier before this experiment was done. Sir Benjamin only proved that LIGHTNING was a form of electricity. Earlier lightning and electricity were considered as different things, or maybe there were no experimental evidence to prove that they were both one and the same thing.

A very important contribution to physics (electrical).

@Kiteretsunu

Yeah, I don't know why I said that, silly me.

That was pretty important in the world of science.
