Awesome. His death was heard in our far-off land and we didn't even know him. Only that he was an American president. This was the time of our parents being able to listen to news from all over the world. All hail Radio.
An extraordinary amount of arrogance is present in any claim of having been the first to invent something.-Benoit Mandelbrot
