"My gourmet popping corn pops up lighter and fluffier than ordinary popping corn. Mine is blowing the top right off of the popper. Mine eats better too. Try my gourmet popping corn. You'll taste the difference or my name isn't Orville Redenbacher". Orville Clarence Redenbacher (1907 -1995) born on this date, he was an American entrepreneur most often associated with the brand of popcorn that bears his name.

Vincent Carroll writes in the Rocky Mountain News this morning about the closing of a turkey plant and the need for scientists, to which I posted this comment:

As Amory B. Lovins from the Rocky Mountain Institute in Aspen http://rmi.org/ has said that we have plenty of technology right now, what we need is more true entrepreneurs to apply existing technology.

Dr. Amar Bhide's new book to be published this fall takes an in-depth look at this critical entrepreneurial shortage and it's causes. www.bhide.net
