Yes indeed, Tom.I had the privilege of helping in the development of the best color sensor, the Foveon X3, I have books by Carver Mead (the guy who coined Moore's Law, and co-wrote the book on VLSI), both signed by him, as well as his former Chief Engineer, Richard F. Lyon (inventor of the Optical Mouse and the Google Street Camera). He signed my copy of his book "Human and Machine Hearing," a total geekfest in the science of Sound Wave Detection.
Giants indeed! Some are still with us breathing!
Leo Beranek lived to be 102, my Dad's Mom lived to be 104, so I hope I got some of those genes!
