The Origin of Spray Paint
By HILARY GREENBAUM and DANA RUBINSTEIN

Original NYTimes link: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/11/06/magazine/who-made-spray-paint.html

That a paint salesman from northern Illinois created the tool through which rebels, gang members, artists and anti-Wall Street protesters alike have expressed themselves merely confirms that inventors can neither control nor predict the impact of their innovations. After all, Jack Dorsey never imagined that Twitter would facilitate Anthony Weiner’s self-immolation.

The spray-paint can, however, has eminently practical origins. Ed Seymour, the proprietor of a Sycamore, Ill., paint company, was in search of an easy way to demonstrate his aluminum coating for painting radiators. His wife suggested a makeshift spray gun, like those used for deodorizers. And so, in 1949, Seymour mixed paint and aerosol in a can with a spray head. As it turned out, compressing paint in a can made for a nice finish.

My super sleuth sysadmin found the demon error in the NYPost code on the main page. The error was mine and all is happy in navbar land....

While on the remote drive, hoping to make a simple fix, the masthead links decided to disappear!

Stencil Archive sysadmin is on the case.

Meanwhile, archives are still up and running, as is the RSS feed.
