Actually, Edison didn't have the idea for the lightbulb at all-he-or, rather, his staff and some say a very productive, imaginative black man whose name escapes me at the moment-perfected it and Edison, being an astute businessman, quickly applied for and received the patent. It's been said Edison was a tireless, astute thief of ideas.....
