tonite we went to the honeywell patent award dinner. we've been invited the past few years, but this year was different. this year ryan was presented with his first patent award!!!!the process for a patent to be filed and then put through the whole patent system takes a very long time. years, actually. ryan submitted this particular patent in 2004 or 2005. it was actually granted in 2008. however, due to the economy, the patent award dinner was canceled last year and therefore was awarded tonite.
ryan has had one or two other patents granted in europe, as well.
i have to brag a little about this boy, because he doesn't get a lot of mention on this blog.
he's doing a fantastic job at work. in fact, today he was a tour guide to a group from the department of energy. there were also local and state dignitaries in attendance. they'll be on the local news tonite. it was a great day for the buffalo research lab, and ryan was able to be a big part of it.
way to go ry!
