Inventor Who Changed the World Dies at 81
Jack Kilby invented the integrated circuit, one of the inventions that make songfight (and many other phenomena) possible. He is regarded along with Edison and Ford as Americans who have changed the face of the planet. Although he won a nobel prize for his work he never saw hardly any of the trillions of dollars in revenue that his invention created. He was by all accounts a humble and happy guy. Humans don't get much better than that.
