It's safe for you to Google this one, Javed. I had to do a large report on Tom when I was in high school. I learned more than I ever wanted to know about the man. Then recently I read Bill Bryson's "Made in America" and learned more about the seedier side of old Tom. As I said a few posts back, he was NOT a nice guy! This cast concrete house, which he patented, is not one of his better known inventions.
