Turn The Screws!

Open your eyes, look in front, look at the back, look at any angle and you will see something that is an engineer's creation.

Engineers have been making things possible that others could only imagine. It perfectly makes sense to have a common place for engineers from around the world where they can share ideas, innovate, & help each other. Engineers are eternal, with the younger at 62 & the youngest at 17, the CEan gang consists of working professionals, students, entrepreneurs, CEOs, professors, geeks & nerds.

In terms of communications, some fellas who stood out:
Alexander Graham Bell
Nikola Tesla
Marconi
Major E. Armstrong
Martin Cooper

Of course, communications wouldnt have gone far without the help of computers, information & coding theory and electronics MaRo had some of the stalwarts in those fields already.

Ash, My vote has always been for Tesla as far as the past century goes. We owe so many things to him (alternating current, induction motors, flourescent bulbs, radio transmission, etc.) & he is almost forgotten. Why he even helped two of the others on your list. Leonard Theramin also goes on my list.
