About Edison:
He didn't try a thing. He basically ran a slave shop in which true inventors and engineers who received none of the fame and little of the fortune toiled and toiled and made his discoveries for him. Edison was good at two things: 1) marketing and 2) taking credit for other people's work.
I think those facts are especially pertinent, considering were talking about the underbellies of things.
I agree with you about the marketing.
