Monday, April 10, 2006. America's High Tech "Invisible Man". By Tyrone D. Taborn. You may not have heard of Dr. Mark Dean. And you aren't alone. But almost everything in your life has been affected by his work. So how is it that we can celebrate the 20th anniversary of the IBM personal computer without reading or hearing a single word about him? One, they changed the landscape of our society; and, two, society relegated them to the footnotes of history. Hopefully, Dr. Mark Dean won't go away as q...In ot...

Such is the trademark of the fool a willing ignorant, made vulnerable by loneliness to the fear of discovering that there is nothing in this world uniquely for him.
