Almost every technological advance that is brought to the masses comes 
from someone like Rockefeller, who improved refineries, rapidly reducing 
the price of refined fuel from thirty cents a gallon down to eight cents 
a gallon.

And every technological advance is brought to the masses by someone like 
Rockefeller.

For example, transistors, invented by Shockley, brought to the masses by 
Shockley Semiconductor Laboratory.  Shockley founded Silicon Valley. 
The Traitorous Eight learned how to build transistors directly from him 
and under him, and then, pissed off by his poor interpersonal skills, 
went on to found Fairchild.

Only to have the same thing happen to them, resulting in the 
Fairchildren and the integrated circuit and Silicon Valley.

Every modern electronic device everywhere comes from someone who learned 
to build transistors at the feet of someone who learned to build 
transistors at the feet of someone who learned to build transistors at 
the feet of Shockley in Shockley Semiconductor Laboratory.

Rockefeller did not invent refining, but he invented the modern type oil 
refinery, making it large scale, efficient, and cheap.  Shockley did 
invent the junction transistor, and did invent the theory and 
explanation of transistors.  He literally wrote the book, and every 
transistor everywhere, except for the early crystal radios, every 
transistor that people use today, is built by people who learned from 
people who learned from people who learned from him in personal 
apprenticeship, the boss telling his employees how to produce the goods 
and personally showing them how to do so with his own hands.
