Elwood G. Norris, 2005 Lemelson-MIT Prize Winner

Elwood Woody Norris began his training in electronics by repairing broken radios as a child and learning all he could about the field. A classic independent inventor, Norris is self-educated, self-funded and self-motivated. With inventions spanning fields from acoustics to aviation to medicine, Norris is positioned to revolutionize technology with his HyperSonic Sound (HSS®) invention and AirScooter®. For these achievements he has been named the 2005 winner of the $500,000 Lemelson-MIT Prize. I really like this guy
