Of possible interest, considering the many posts about the inventor of televison....

A while back, I saw a documentary featuring Chester Carlson, the 
inventor of xerography. A point mentioned in the course of the show was 
that it (xerography) may well have been the only modern invention which 
was conceived of and executed by only one person. Because of the sharing 
of knowledge and aspirations by scientists in modern times, inventions 
tend to happen in many places by many people at approximately the same time.

It also brings to mind the "inventor of the telephone" issue. Bell is, 
of course, credited with that invention, but that's only because he was 
first at the Patent Office. Another inventor was there a half-hour later 
with essentially the same device. This merely points up the influence of 
other factors on what we come to "know" as fact; it is perhaps related 
to the idea that if you state something often enough to enough people, 
it can become known as fact. I'm sure the urban legends newsgroup could 
show ample proof of that.

Bottom line is that television was invented in multiple forms, in many 
places, by many people. And it's entirely possible that we don't even 
know who all of them were. Similarly, it's possible that we never even 
used the "best" system for TV; after all, there are at least three major 
"types" of TV transmission in the world....

"Excuse my dust." --epitaph of Dorothy Parker
(I suspect that this is from a query by one of the famous old magazines 
which requested epitaphs from famous people of the day. If that's the 
case, it's also the source of the W.C. Fields epitaph "I'd rather be in 
Philadelphia." Being a Philadelphian, I never understood why it was a 
slight against Philadelphia, which was Fields' birthplace, but that 
seems to be the common reading. But I digress....

     Have we fallen so low that we will ignore carefully scripted
politicianisms as ineffectual rhetoric?  It's one thing to promise
'No New Taxes' and then fall back on that pledge, but to dismiss the
rights of a group of people publicly should definitely be cause for
questioning and investigation.

     Religious and other rights, whether upheld or not, should be 
taken a lot more seriously than the usual campaign promises (e.g. more

Slightly off-topic but that's never stopped anyone before:

There's an even worse version of this in "Starcrash", the 1970's answer to
Plan 9 (IMHO it leaves Plan 9 for dead, but that's another story):

"We can't stay out here, the temperature drops thousands of degrees at

Obviously, Starcrash is a film which doesn't believe in screwing up by

I realize that these books exsist, and I have looked at some, but found most
to be inadequate.  Maybe I should have been more specific; Any reccomendations
