I visited the governors mansion in New Jersey. It was once owned by the owner of playtex.The guide told us the story of a man being the paper boy to someone I believe owned Kodak company. The Kodak man paid for the paperboy to become a mechanical engineer. Somehow the young engineer started playtex. Then he won the contest to make the space suit. He felt that was the reason he was born.
