Ray Kurzweil      As Ray Kurzweil has developed the various things over the year makes a person believe that there are people in this world that want to make the world a better place to live. He is a author, inventor, and a futurist. The many different things he has been involved with in the field of technology is something that might not have developed till later years.       I guess you would have to call it fate in the fact that his parents barely escaped Austria before World War II. He seems have, in his early years, have set the tone for what he would become after his uncle taught basics of computers and as they say, away we go. Writing his first computer program at fifteen and two years later winning a science competition is hard to comprehend.        Ray has over the years started and sold several companies which most people would be lucky to start one and keep it for their lifetime. Again the things he has developed for not only the future of technology but to name a few, the blind, dyslexia, and ADD shows the drive and imagine that this man has.      This man, some would call a genius, i would have to call a driven. He has written numerous books and won too many awards to keep track of. He continues to look to the future for ways, with technology, to make this place we all call home a better and simpler place. I will try to keep up with the new and amazing things we continues to develop.
