A cache and Dash with History

Cache container relates to the typical view of "Edison"

Thomas Edison held a record 1,093 patents for his inventions, this series visits a few of the less known inventions he made

Thomas Edison

In 1868 Edison came up with his first patented invention,
an Electrical Vote Recorder.

This invention was way ahead of its time, and heartily denigrated by politicians.

Afterwards he made certain there is a strong public demand and associated market for anything he invents.

Congrats to Hartsdale for FTF.
