Thomas
Edison invented more than the light bulb. He invented a
methodology for inventing. In fact, he set up an "Invention
Factory", where teams of people having different
areas of expertise worked together on problems and
visions, cranking out invention after invention.
This
page is dedicated to the Thomas Edison in all of us.

"Invention
is 2% inspiration and 98% perspiration." Do not to
stand in awe of the invention process. Inspiration comes
from "doing your homework." Get familiar with
the problem, the physics, the machinery. Do some
experiments, calculations, tests. Talk with others who
may have insights or expertise.
Invention
is a process of learning and discovery, an act of
creation. That's what makes it fun.
