Very interesting!

I'll see if I can dig up some exact dates on some of it...as old as the history is, that may be hard to do, but I'd sure like to include some of this in our daily trivia.

That would be nice. Thanks, Melody! I found the blog extremely interesting. I received it as an email from one of my bulb forums and thought it would fit nicely here as well as the DG Bulb forum.
