Why do people phish on the internet?

It's usually an identity theft scam. The goal is to get you to log in on a fake website, which gives the phisher your user name and password. They can use that to log in at your actual account, which may give them access to other passwords, credit card numbers, bank accounts and other sensitive materials.

Phishers have some pretty tricky schemes, so you have to be very careful while surfing the Web.

Who invented the gurney?

The name gurney comes from its similarity to a horse-drawn cab patented in the U.S. in 1883 by J. Theodore Gurney. A gurney, (known as a trolley in British medical context) is the U.S. term for a type of stretcher used in modern hospitals and ambulances in developed areas. A hospital gurney is a kind of narrow bed on a wheeled frame which may be adjustable in height. For ambulances, a collapsible gurney is a type of stretcher on a variable-height wheeled frame. Normally, an integral lug on the gurney locks into a sprung latch within the ambulance in order to prevent movement during transport. As you can see - there are quite a few variations on the gurney, so the question needs to be made more specific. In general though - the first gurney was probably just a bed on wheels with many modifications made incrementally over the years. It may also be noted that a plausible argument might be made that a simple wheelbarrow was a forerunner of the modern gurney in that they were used in the middle ages to transport dead bodies during the plague and could be used to transport a sick person just as easily. That said - unless you want to specify a particular model of gurney, the question cannot be answered definitively.
