Tut, tut, those of you who think all celebrities are idiots. Maybe some celebrity patents will change your mind. I think the most fascinating is Hedy Lamarr's secret communication system (aka Frequency-hopped spread spectrum invention)...

That's Hedley!
I love that one of the lesser known marx brothers invented something useful
