"Stainless steel didn't get (accidentally) discovered till WW2."

Stainless Steel was invented by Elwood Haynes ( as in Haynes Apperson) before US entry in WW I because his wife was complaining about polishing the silverware.

He was trained as chemist, and built the first long distance gas pipe line. He had the Apperson brothers build an auto around his ideas in 1893/94 to make inspection of the pipe line easier.
