RIP Spencer Silver

#1 Post by Bob Juch » Fri May 14, 2021 10:04 am

Spencer Silver, an Inventor of Post-it Notes, Is Dead at 80

He created the adhesive that lets the small, square notes stick to surfaces. They became one of the most ubiquitous office products ever conceived.

Never met him but probably one of the most stuck up persons you could ever meet.

War is where the government tells you who the bad guy is.
Revolution is when you decide that for yourself.
