My brother and I have a running dispute over the inventor of the 
bar-code scanner system used for inventory control in supermarkets, etc.
He ( a Drexel Alum ) claims it was solely invented by a Drexel Prof
at Drexel University ( in Philadelphia, PA ). I , however, recall
reading an article about one of the co-inventors either attending the
University of Maryland as a student or as a prof (I am a Maryland alumus).
Can someone settle this dispute for us?
				Thanks
