“The obit is worth a read.
Not every man has an impact this huge and remain essentially unknown.”
Very true. I assume this is very common.

This is the difference between engineers and politicians
Engineers spend their lives trying to invent things and make lives for better people and don’t want any attention . Whereas, politicians try to make everybody’s life miserable and get lots of attention
Put that same thought to the guy who ‘accidently invented the “POST IT” tags.
