Inventors Get Recognition

02/12/2009 9:17 AM

Forbes Magazine just published an article about Inventors getting due recognition, and I thought the inventors here would enjoy reading this...

Thanks for this encouragement. It seems a lot of folks are having to deal with a lack of creative "space" in their current work environment, and of course the general economy has everyone a little down. Some a long way down.

This article tells me there is more than money and even recognition as a reward to creativity and contribution, (although now, some posthumously, these folks are being seen for what they accomplished), and in some of the least expected places there is a degree of heroism.

It also tells me (although not mentioned), there were (and hopefully still are) companies and institutions who support those creative types. Kudos to these mentioned (and the zillion or so that maybe weren't), and the daring companies and institutions who surely supported (and likely profited) from their work.

Thanks, and kind regards ...
