God Bless Spencer Silver and Arthur Fry

Why? Because they are the inventors of Post-it notes! One of the best inventions ever. And the new flag tab things 3M has invented? Pure genius :)

I use those flags all the time when I review test documents. They are awesome. I have all different colors and stacks of each different color on my desk.

Ok, I'll out myself...and admit to remembering life BEFORE Post its. I also remember how excited my mom was when they first came out...she worked as an administrative assistant for a book publisher and thus I'm sure she found many uses for them. I also remember how expensive they were at first and that you had to use them "sparingly" and try not to waste them. And finally, I remember the dinner table talk of "why couldn't I have invented something like that".
