History is full of men and women who have devoted countless hours to turning their ideas into physical properties. Thomas Edison had ideas about improving incandescent lighting, and he worked hard until he'd come up with a longer-lasting light bulb. And good for him! (He's why you're able to read this right now.) But there are just as many moments in our past where men and women have devoted those hours to realizing a dream only to see that dream crushed by the pragmatic demands of reality, then to realize that they've accidentally come up with something of equal or greater importance. Our lives depend on these accidental inventions more than we might know, and our world and economy are certainly in their debt. If you've ever cured your illness or nuked a TV dinner, you're living proof of the happiness of accidental discoveries.
