Seem to remember listening to radio programme where he decided to invent the wind up radio for poorer people in the third world who did not have batteries easily or no leccy, so just for that he was a beautiful human being, RIP Trevor.

On the flip side, millions of people have now been unnecessarily exposed to Ed Sheeran.

He did it as a response to the AIDS crisis in Africa as information about the disease couldn't be given to the population as there was no means of communication.

The lack of recognition of his achievement is a disgrace. He wasn't even knighted.

RIP.

Spot on Lisa, the impact his invention had was terribly underated.
No doubt he will be honoured posthumously.

Makes me angry that people who do such selfless work and don't profit from it don't get as much recognition as people like James Dyson who manufactures everything in Malaysia, is hugely wealthy, but has a spectacularly big mouth.

Note that this sentiment may be partly caused by his bloody crap cleaner being the biggest waste of money I've ever spent. I'm gutted I didn't buy another Henry!

Right again Lisa, also my mate had a Dyson reckoned after a few years there was no pile left on the carpet.

It's quite genuinely a complete waste of money.

Give him more time, Trev would have come up with a wind up vacuum cleaner I'm sure, he was a top inventor.
