Elmer Anderson, a past governor for MN died. I didn't know who he was until today, but I should have. Self-proclaimed a liberal republican, he was mighty progressive. The glue company that he ran for years was one of the first to give employees paid vacation time with one stipulation. They could only use it to do something fun. He also thought that since famous people like Dr. King get a day for their birthdays, so should his empolyees. Everyone got their birthdays off!
How rad is that?
