  • Abstract
    There is only one U.S. president who is also a patentee. One might guess that the president is Thomas Jefferson, who invented many things and considered himself to be an inventor. Or, we might guess George Washington whose work as a surveyor and planter, not to mention commander-in-chief of the army, brought him into contact with the latest technology of the 18th century.
