This may not mean anything to some, but today's Washington Post contains 
a well-written obituary of George C. Devol, the self-taught inventor of 
the robotic arm that came to be known as the Ultimate. He died August 11 
at his home in Connecticut.

The obit contains a quote from him that reminds me of us sometimes. On 
subject of his lack of formal education, he said "I always went into 
areas of industry where nobody else knew anything either. There was 
nowhere to go to get information, so I generated it."
