Benjamin Franklin

He lived in several places, but his main home was in Philadelphia. He was married but was seldom home. At one point in his marriage he hadn't seen her for 10 years. In France he was a roommates to Jefferson and Adams. Jefferson, in letters, complained often about Franklin and sharing rooms with him. He had an estate in London as well.

He received honorary degrees from Harvard, Yale, University of St. Andrews (Scotland; Doctor of Laws), and Oxford (for science).

he was born a natural skeptic.

I think that anybody who wants 2 be a scientist or provide a service 4 his society in general must do some small things:1- try 2 improve his mind by solving IQ tests 2- be excellent @ his career as hard as possible & ask in each big or small thing about it in order 2 introduce new thing which may serve his society 3- be honest with his people so God leads him 2 the safe & good way. 4- read in all knowledge branches sincs the book is a gift which you can open again and again . MY best wishes 4 member @ Answers.com in the end.

No. She had 8 children. One of them died as a child.

Benjamin Franklin decsovered electricity by flying a kite in the middle of a thunderstorm. he tied a key to the top and when lighting struck the rod it made electricity because the negitave charge from the cloud and the positive charge from the key repelled toghter and made electricity...
Benjamin Franklin found a way to control electric power using his famous kite experiment. He along with his son, William, flew a kite during a thunderstorm. The kite was attached to a silk string connected to a key. The key had wire tied around it leading to a Leyden jar. Benjamin Franklin held on to a silk ribbon also connected to the key. When lightning struck the kite, the electricity traveled down the silk string to the key, where it traveled down the wire to the Leyden jar. Benjamin Franklin was very lucky to be alive after performing this experiment, for many scientist have tried to imitate this experiment and have ended up being electrocuted.

The kite experiment was a scientific experiment

Benjamin Franklin helped form the consitution and was a signer of the Declaration of Independance, but the majority of his government service was as a diplomat. As such, he would not have been in a position to do anything if confronted with a situation such as 9/11.

No, Alexander Hamilton is on the ten dollar bill. They're the only two.

Benjamin Franklin felt the need for a strong American militia. He wrote a bill in 1755 that proposed creation of a militia in preparation for the French and Indian war. Later Benjamin Franklin would use his wit and diplomacy skills to get financial and military aid from France during the revolutionary war.

You don't.

It's still worth $100.

Benjamin Franklin did not invent electricity. He did some experiments with it however. One experiment (that may be only a legend) is that he flew a kite in a thunderstorm, and confirmed by the charge on a metal key that lightning is an electrical phenomenon. I LIKE PIE

what happened at Ben's electric picnic

Ben Franklins important family members were Dev Franklin (his wife) and George Franklin (his son).

fire the wheel are 2 of them

Krazy Glue was an accident.

A lightning rod is designed to protrude above the highest point of a building. A lightning strike will (hopefully) strike the rod, rather than damage the building itself. The charge will travel safely to earth along a metal cable fixed between the rod and the ground.

He was famous for wanting a change. For trying to inventions.

he never actually invented some go on the world of Benjamin Franklin website and click on the inventor link it will tell u all about his inventions.

himself because he had so much work to do
