What if Isaac Newton Had Discovered Electrical Conductivity?
Electrical conductivity was discovered in 1729. What if Isaac Newton had discovered it six decades earlier? Could he have combined it with his researches in alchemy to discover electrochemistry? Would the development of electrical and electronic devices have been accelerated by six decades or more?

Interesting thought. Pity that Gray was apparently in the wrong 'faction' in the Royal Society. Politics buggers up everything, it seems.
