The Inventor
------------

In the U.S. in 1882 an inventor patented a propeller-driven rocking
chair. The propeller supplied movement to the chair from its mount at
the top of the chair's back.
 
Legend has it that the inventor, in his first demonstration of the
chair, leaned back too far, got his hair caught in the propeller,
and...well, you really don't want to know.
 
But wait, there's a happy ending.  His heirs were not left empty-handed.
They re-patented his machine as a blender.
