Hobnobbing with Harbaugh

1. That last panel is interesting; I’m sure it was complete unintentional, but I wonder what the first name of the “artist” is, considering the “school” being attended. Then again, that Farnsworth always got the short end of the stick from Sarnoff and Co. Lastly, at least today, some of the more interesting electronics and robotics systems are actually put together by artists (generally Arduino or AVR-powered as well)…

2. I think his name’s David Harbaugh, and he’s still with us. And I’m sure he knows who Philo Farnsworth was.

3. I was meaning the name of the “artist” depicted, not Harbaugh; it was meant in a joking fashion…
