Oscar night. But he became one of the evening's big winners after Sandra
Bullock stopped for a television interview on the red carpet, held up a
package of the Cool Mint Listerine PocketPaks D'Souza invented, and
announced, "I love these!" Inspired in 1996 by an edible paper he had seen

Pakistan in 1978, spent 18 months with a team of dozens of scientists
creating the strip. "First it stuck to the roof of our mouths," he says.
"Then it was too brittle, and at times it was so strong people's eyes would

wife, Venetia, 46, son Russell, 17, and fraternal twins Adrian and Alicia,
16. Full text at:
