Thanks for the link. Evidently Mr. G had some kookie ideas, one of which was the disposable blade which freed everyone from the task of sharpening blades so they could be reused. Gives us more time to spend looking at our smart phones. :)

Great link. The guy may have had Utopian ideas but he created and ran a helluva business.
