Egon Mateivich (sp?) was the analagous person at Clarkson.  He was a chem.
prof. (and was definitely a good one; I *do* know that he sucked up a large
portion of the school's grant money, I looked at financial reports), who
supposedly had two patents of note; the patent on the colloidal process used
in instant Jell-O, which presumably made him some money, and has been a source
of humor for the Knight (college humor mag) for ages, and the other one, the
one that made him a *lot* of money: the patent on the colloidal process used
for bonding Teflon to metal.
