Patent Diagram for "USS Enterprise"
In an e-mail newsletter I got yesterday from the U.S. Department of Commerce, I saw this very intriguing headline: “Photo of the Week - USPTO marks the 50th anniversary of Star Trek with a patented toy design from their archive.” How could I resist?! Click here to see it. (Apologies for anything amiss about this. I don't do Twitter.)
I didn't realize that Andrew Probert lived (lives?) in El Segundo, California. Just down the road from me!

Cool! 
Give a man a fire, and you keep him warm for a day. SET a man on fire, and you will keep him warm for the rest of his life...
