Philo Farnsworth
August 19, 1906 - March 11, 1971
He had the inspiration which led to television while sitting on a hillside
in Idaho. The neat rows in a nearby farm gave him the idea of creating picture on a
cathode ray tube out of rows of light and dark dots. He was 14 at the time, the next
year he presented the concept at a high-school science project, and demonstrated the first
working model of a television set when he was 21.

Bar" in Edinburgh, Scotland during my vacation to the UK. Baird
lived in the same building as Alexander Graham Bell.
