Thanks,

They, and a lot of others were stockpiling weapons of mass destruction long
before they 'invented' the Atomic Bomb.



Why do you put 'invented' in quotation marks ? The atom bomb was indeed an
invention. It was *not* a discovery.


Einstein invented the Atom bomb. 


I think it's more accurate to say that Einstein 'conceived' the A-bomb.

It's invention was at Los Alamos.


Designed and built there.  I'm sure there were some inventions along the way - but the idea predated Los Alamos.
