good definition of an inventor
My good friend Steve Nipper passed on this quote and in the spirit of being a good sport, I think it is an apt definition of an inventor:
"When trouble arises and things look bad, there is always one individual who perceives a solution and is willing to take command. Very often, that individual is crazy."
-- Dave Barry
Speaking of inventors, Rethink(IP) has had an ongoing series of articles the past week written by Dr. Bill Meade, a former director of intellectual property for HP. Bill’s posts have walked through his observations as to the six life stages of inventors and are probably a more accurate definition of an inventor than Dave Barry’s quote.
In any event, they are well worth the read.
