Google it, sure you can find tons of stories on it. I hated the damned thing, admittedly because I sucked at it. But it was/is a popular toy.

Etch A Sketch inventor dies.

i used to just draw a solid square which would remove the silver stuff on the screen so i could see inside at how it works
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them. Impersonation is treason. 
Dibs on shaking the coffin. He might come back to life.
Slave to the Patriarchy no more
The strange thing is, Etch-A-Sketches are among those things I never thought of as actually having an inventor, though obviously they must have done. It's hard to imagine someone coming up with idea in the first place, let alone putting in the hours perfecting it.

Just about the only thing I can do with the things actually. (February 3, 2013 at 6:53 pm)Moros Synackaon Wrote: Dibs on shaking the coffin. He might come back to life.

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
What no mention of Mitt Romney yet?
