By the way, in the aforementioned book about great men - the author seems to be the Briton, - says that the Britons possess a bigger contribution to a human civilization if to be compared with people from other regions or other nationalities. And that if to consider a share of Scots among the outstanding Britons, if to compare the number of natives of Scotland with a share of Scots in the general population of the globe, then concentration of talents and achievements in this country should be estimated as unique.

It sounds, of course, poetic, like a sonnet. And pleasantly. We will address the facts.

Let us take Your life as an example.You were born... Then, You were learning...Decent parents... Humane and developing education. A favourable social environment. The author of the biographical essay describes your childhood. Mentioned were also a house on the river in the maritime city, and the crane of work of Your father on local pier, and organ, made by Your father, in one of local churches.

Describes a workshop where next to joiner's workbenches and smithing furnaces were standing the whole collection of nautical telescopes, quadrants and other nautical instruments. All these things Your father not only sold these things, but he also repaired them by his own hands.

The author of the essay has mentioned, that Your father in the large ranks not wanted to climb. At least, he refused the title of chief judge and spent most of his time in his workshop or on the river bank. At the same time in his house next to the portraits of relatives on the walls he hung images of the luminaries of mathematical science, Isaac Newton and Napier, inventor of logarithms.

How did your life develop further? "Lunar society"... Cooperation with the University... The Great invention. "Happiness" of financial partnership... Business success. Quite good monetary capital as results of works... The glory... The place in the History...

The author of biographic essay about You expresses surprise at the sincere liking, the delicacy and the modesty, with which You and the people in Your environment have helped each other. But it 18th century! Century of many events. Epoch of wars, revolutions and social cataclysms. Epoch of calamities, hunger, violence, cruelties and bitterness!

If we turn to the biography of the respected Michael Faraday, we will see, that not everyone had a well-to-do family, a bright, organized, prosperous childhood. (And peaceful sky above a head).

But the example of the same respected Michael Faraday testifies the formation of algorithms for the emergence of "new people".

In figurative sense, the Charter was transformed into the Industrial Revolution.

If to look more widely, then the contribution to history has brought historical "percent": the civilization capital has grown.

A new people with new abilities and new opportunities appeared. Appears the poetic conclusion about the superiority of the British contribution to human civilization compared with people from other regions or of other nationalities.

A Baron gave a glance in the face of genius Inventor and continued:

- One of the so to say emotional "engines" of events that interest You - Heather honey.

If to think polit-correct, you can recall the instructive stories for children about the extraordinary attractiveness of honey.

A "whistles", "chants", verses!" Sopelka", "svistelka"!

What will You say, Mr. Academician, if You at some moment unexpectedly for Yourself find out, that the honey has been eaten? That the honey disappeared?

The Baron was kept silence a few moments.

Some shade ran on face of Inventor.

The Baron after a pause has finished a thought:

- You must agree, that our Island's inhabitants couldn't complain of disappearance of heather honey.

- You're right, Mr. Baron. Our Island has gone through different events, and the volume of the Heather's honey did not decrease, but sometimes increased. Increased in such degree, that it was surprising.

The interlocutors have stopped.

Strange noise was heard. The genius Inventor has looked through a window. His face has expressed such amazement that the Baron has directed the attention toward subject of interest of the Inventor.

My neighbor, gentry, Mr. Academician. He built a small steam engine on three wheels and periodically enjoy the novelty of the technical achievements. And he lost interest to the dinners and other traditional entertainment. Man 'captured' by the sphere of technical novelties.

The Baron laughed and added:

- The joke has extended that this our local fan of the tech-equipment has started up at night the three-wheeled engine for test on one of low-traffic roads. When the water in the boiler has begun to boil, the locomotive ran very quickly. A bystander has seen the shining and whistling subject rushing to him towards and imagined, that he found a product of supernatural forces. My neighbor became a personage in the local legend!

Public opinion is changeable and prone to fears!

- I heard a similar story-anecdote in my native places, - the genius Inventor reacted:

A energetic person from the sphere of agriculture became interested in technical achievements. And built a locomotive which, although with difficulty, was able to drag several of the wagons.

During the test, the locomotive pulled up to one of the outposts, on which the fare was taken.

When the watchman saw the approaching monster, he was so scared that he refused the duty. And muttered in a frightened voice: "Nothing don't need , sir! Nothing, - only pass away rather...".

An example of how scientific and technical development opens up the markets!

The baron has smiled, and the ingenius inventor has slightly nodded.

To them a servant walked up with a tray. There was champagne in crystal cups.

- That's a gift from my relatives, - pointing on the champagne, said the Baron.

- In the ancient Island Castle - magnificent continental champagne. Very thinly, - Inventor spoke out.

Baron raised a cup:

- Your engine of Industrial Revolution! For your genius, Mr. Academician! For our relatives, for literature and science! For trade!

- For your risk, your luck, and your foresight! And for the Historical Charter of constitutionality, parliamentarism and justice, Mr. Baron! - the Inventor supported the toast.
