This post started out as a guest contribution from Lucas Weaver of the Yolopreneur.  However,  there were items that needed more direct information, so it is more of a collaboration between Mr. Weaver and Dr. Ackerman; but it was Lucas who first arrived at the subject matter.

It all stems from STEM

I remember when I was a little tyke, I would play in my basement. No, not with conventional toys. Oh, sure, one of my distant cousins (who was deeply involved with Sperry Gyroscope and its military inventions) had given me his son’s wonderful Lionel train set (which remained in my possession until I was 12 years old).
