Creation is the heart of any strong and vibrant society.
It is from this risk taking invention that genius incubates.
No, not every creation is a mastery, but invention and risk taking
whether thru art or entrepreneurship has spawned industries
and shared prosperity for millions of workers and shareholders.
Let us not forget to celebrate the artist.
 
We can thank Leonardo for the airplane
Edison for Electric Light
and my great great grandfather Stuart Warren Cramer for air conditioning
and the cramer cloth worn in WW2/Korea and Vietnam.
 
and more recently Steve Jobs for the iphone
:)
 
create,invent, and make art of it.
