Interesting article. Except, in all the time that I have known him, I have never heard anyone refer to Dean Kamen as "Dumpy." I don't think that even Libby could get away with that!

I can't imagine who would call Dean Kamen "Dumpie."

My favorite part of the Esquire article is the (partial) listing of inventions that "could literally change the world, if he could only get the d**n world to cooperate." That's the Dean Kamen we know and love.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
