DEDICATION

This book is dedicated to my parents:

To my late father, Richard K. L. Young, the relentless inventor/junk collector and motivator, who taught me the most valuable lessons in creativity: how to make something useful out of something other people might consider junk. My dad could turn an ordinary piece of wood into a rubber-band gun with a few flicks of his knife. A trip to the local junkyard with my dad was always a hunt for buried treasures.

And to my mother, Elsie S. Young, who always provided me with an encouraging environment: letting me build and create strange and unusual projects around our house at a very young age (and into adulthood). The support of both of my parents was the genesis for this book.

Man’s mind stretched to a new idea never

goes back to its original dimensions.

—Oliver Wendell Holmes

The only way to discover the limits of the

possible is to go beyond them into the

impossible.

—Arthur C. Clarke
