Happy 100 Norman Borlaug ...

He is one of handful of humans who made heaven on earth and in the process saved billion lives:

It's probably safe to say that most of us haven't heard of agronomist Norman Borlaug. If I hadn't been tangentially involved with Indian agriculture, I wouldn't have heard of him. But Borlaug was not only a famous scientist, he was one of only seven people to have won the Nobel Prize, the Presidential Medal of Freedom, and the Congressional Gold Medal. Apparently, the only prize to elude him was the Cy Young Award.

In case you never heard of him, this documentary will enlighten you: Freedom From Famine - The Norman Borlaug Story and read the wisdom of Borlaug
