Rest, Pause, In, Pause, Peace

Intermittment wipers, they’re everywhere…

Robert Kearns, the inventor of intermittment wipers, has passed away.  I enjoyed his daughters comments regarding his funeral.

"Kearns died Feb. 9 at his home in suburban Baltimore and was buried in Michigan on a misty Valentine’s Day.

“It was going just enough to have the wipers going on intermittent. I thought, ‘How appropriate,’” Kearns’ daughter, Maureen Kearns, told the Detroit Free Press for a story published Friday."

“Robert Kearns, inventor of intermittent wipers, dies at 77"
