I read the encyclopædia so you don't have to. I bring a daily dose of knowledge which is sometimes obscure, but always interesting. A while back I splurged and paid $700 for an 8 year old set of the Encyclopædia Britannica. I'm reading it cover to cover, page by page.

Deming, W. Edwards - in charge of quality control for Japan
Deming, W. Edwards had a large amount of influence on Japanese businesses in post-World War II Japan. He apparently brought quality control to Japan in 1950. The Japan Deming Prize (est. 1951) is still given annually to corporations that win quality control competition.
It seems pretty epic for one person to have so much positive influence in their chosen field.
