One of my personal heroes is Thomas Edison, the inventor from New Jersey with over 1000 patents in his name. He founded General Electric as well as a utility company, Metropolitan Edison, for whom I used to work.
The lightbulb was just the most famous of his inventions, but today our lives would be radically different if not for Thomas Edison. His work with electricity, batteries, lightbulbs, film projectors, the phonograph and even basic switches that would later become early computers, Edison's ability to constantly innovate and create was remarkable.
If each of us tried just a little harder to stretch our capabilities, imagine our world.
Thomas Edison was born February 11, 1847, and today would be his 170th birthday.
