'On December 23, 1947, three researchers at Bell labs demonstrated a new device
to colleagues.  The device, a solid-state replacement for the audion tube,
represented the pinnacle of the quest to provide amplification of electronic
communication. The History Guy recalls the path that brought us what one
engineer describes as "The world's most important thing."'
