           A BRIGHTER IDEA!

   This is an important day in history.

First, our daughter Melissa Boub is

celebrating her birthday. Second, this

is the date, in 1856, a patent was 

issued for the Carbon filiment for the

electric light bulb! This invention

really made the electric light a

dependable device. And the patent

went....not to Thomas Edison......but

to Joseph Swan, who remains a

somewhat unknown inventor who

made a bg impact! Certainly a guy

who should be in the light! The

limelight that is! Hope you're

well and that all your NEWS is

good!
