Just recieved my copy of the magazine and the story is titled "THE FEARLESS 50, AMERICA'S GREATEST INNOVATORS" Dean is mentioned on the front cover, has a full page photograph at the first page of the story and has a nice bio like the other 49. It was fun to read. Seem's like all the photo's used were familiar tho?

mind if my segway and i pass?

Just makes me worry that Kamen won't be aroudn for ever to creat stuff to help people...

Lets hope he completes the Sterling Engine before he dies, unlike Enstein and Time Travel.

51 is not old! My father just turned 85, Mom will be 80 in July and they still ski at Park City! Inventing will keep Dean young for a long time!

Nice article. The whole thing is worth reading.

It's only the young who have no sense of time. I'm only 76. I remember vividly as a young child exclaiming over an airplane that was flying overhead and a man passing by refused to look up. He said that if God wanted man to fly he would have given him wings--that there was nothing up there to look at. Now he obviously wasn't the brightest guy in town but lets not kill off Mr. Kamen before at least a few years have passed. And I assume he has access to pretty good doctors.
