Excerpt from Mark Tidd, Editor
Mark's father didn't use to have any money at all. He just sat around inventing things and reading Gibbon's Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. First he'd invent a little, and then he'd read a little, and it was a wonder he didn't get the two mixed up. But finally he up and invented a turbine-engine, and it made such a pile of money for him that he didn't need to do a thing but read Gibbon and carry bushel baskets of dollars to the bank every little while.
