Innovative genius illuminating our sight.Advancing human life, not Mankind’s PlightThis is where it happened
Where it all began
The ideas, the breakthroughs
Again and again
Hard work, effort, toil, in multiple trade
Creation, Creation,
History was made
With light and sound
Solutions were found
In this place, ideas abound

I was thinking perhaps "University of Pennsylvania's Moore School of Electronics"
It's where ENIAC was built.

I was thinking the same sort of thing. Regardless of what the answer is, If someone wanted a domain name that hasn't been picked yet, they could go ahead and register it themselves.

I submitted and won. The answer was menloparklab.com. I'm not sure why they XXXXX'd out the answer on their site. I guess they are hoping to keep interest up for a while longer.

Good job, I realized "Tesla" was wrong after I thought about it and realized it had to be a place and not a person.
