Henry Ford did not come up with any new fantastic technology either (he didn't invent the automobile nor the internal combustion engine), but how different would American life have been if he had listened to the naysayers who told him that there was no point in building millions of autos when there were no roads or gas stations to accomodate them? (Luckily for us, he didn't listen.)
