Good Edison joke. Reminds me of a Dave Barry joke about Alexander Graham Bell. Well, actually two of them. Again, too lazy for exact quotes:
One day Bell fashioned a crude electronic device and spoke into it. Everybody thought he was an idiot and he would've died in poverty if Edison hadn't invented the second telephone years later.  Alexander spoke into the telephone, "Watson I need you," but had to leave a message with the his secretary since Watson was out solving a case with Sherlock Holmes. This kept happening for years.  And another about men and women: Men and women often have different financial priorities. For example, the man might want to buy a thoroughbred racehorse and the woman might want to buy food. They need to compromise. In this example they could buy a thoroughbred racehorse and then eat it. And a short list of Barry-inspired rockband names: The Flaming Booty Moths Italic Squirrels The Shaking Turkey Wattles
