Manda Lee Thanks for the lesson in history...fascinating,
people are silly you know, they use to let themselves die from embarrassment, too embarassed to tell the doctor they had a problem because it was on a "private" part of the body.

This is a wonderful story. I am glad he was able to get the reward he was looking for, I think that was just to see his wonderful work being used and to be paid what was good at the time. That is so encouraging. Thank you so much for posting that.

Thanks for sharing this inspirational story with us. Its particularly
interesting as most people assume inventions come from white people,especially in the early days.

MandaLeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee - WOW!
That was some post.  I'm glad he received the citation before he died, often these recognitions come too late.  He sure led a busy inventive life. How's your voice activated program doing?  Is this a result?  The post, I mean?
