What did Edison invent?
Oh -and if you're talking about the light bulb, it wasn't that! Edison patented a light bulb that DIDN'T WORK. The light bulb he made his money from was a copy of Joseph Swann's, which he came across - in production - in England some two years before he filed his own patents.
(Oh, and Swann's bulb was patented - Edison ripped him off!)

IIRC he invented (or supervised the invention of) many other things, the phonograph and movies to name a couple.
