Many years ago, I read in a book or magazine, the little short guy had
something to do with inventing or improving something to do with
refrigeration.What was it?

Whatever it was, it probably had *nothing* to do with _sci.electronics.repair_.

Maybe you might go say Hello (for that little short guy) to whatever
refrigeration thingys you have.How about Smiley Burnette? I dont know if
he invented anything.He owned a very good wood work shop at his home.You
ever heard of Ring Eye?

Lou Costello invented a commercial ice cube maker sometime in the 1940s.
It was called the "Serv Ice".

Ok then, how about Ziegfeld Girl Hedy Lamarr??

Answer:
http://www.americanheritage.com/articles/magazine/it/1997/4/1997_4_10.shtml

The article has a follow up showing patents issued for other celebrity
inventors but my mobile phone wouldn't work if it weren't for Hedy.

There were a few movies with Hedy Lamar in those old movies on the TCM
channel.She was a great woman.I love those old Zigefield Folles and
Vauderville.I think Rodney Dangerfield was the last of the best
Vauderville era guys.
