Look at the photo, please. This man is a great inventor called Thomas Edison.

　　Thomas Edison received over 1000 U.S. patents, the most issued to any individual. Some people also credit him with an invention that received no patent: the modern corporate research laboratory. While this conclusion is arguable, his Menlo Park laboratory was intentionally designed to be an invention factory. It housed a large reference library, and often served to showcase the Wizard's work. Some who worked in or visited the lab later became competitors.
