The Fluorescent Lamp

Who is Agapito Flores? Many Filipinos acknowledge Agapito Flores as the inventor of the fluorescent lamp, which is the most widely used source of lighting in the world today.

According to Filipino scientists, fluorescent lamp was not named after Flores. The term fluorescence first cropped up as early as 1852 when English mathematician-physicist George Gabriel Stokes discovered a luminous material called "fluorspar", which he coined with "escence". The National Academy of Science and Technology also dismissed Flores being the inventor of fluorescent lamp as a myth. "No scientific report, no valid statement, no rigorous documents can be used to credit Flores for the discovery of the fluorescent lamp. We have tried to correct this misconception, but the media (for one) and our textbooks (for another) keep using the Flores example," a Filipino scientist wrote in her column at the Philippine Daily Inquirer.

The fluorescent lamps were introduced into the U.S. market in 1938. Still, Filipinos recognize Agapito Flores as the inventor of the product that illuminated the world.

An Empty Chair

A man's daughter had asked the local minister to come

and pray with her father.

When the minister arrived, he found the man lying in bed

with his head propped up on two pillows.

An empty chair sat beside his bed.

The minister assumed that the old fellow had been

informed of his visit.

"I guess you were expecting me, he said.

'No, who are you?"

said the father.

The minister told him his name

and then remarked,

"I saw the empty chair

and I figured

you knew I was going to show up,"

"Oh yeah, the chair,"

said the bedridden man.

"Would you mind closing the door?"


Puzzled,

the minister shut the door.

"I have never told anyone this,

not even my daughter,"

said the man.

"But all of my life I have never known how to pray.

At church I used to hear the pastor talk about prayer,

but it went right over my head."

I abandoned any attempt at prayer,"

the old man continued,

"until one day four years ago,

my best friend said to me,

"Johnny, prayer is just a simple matter

of having a conversation with Jesus.

Here is what I suggest."

"Sit down in a chair;

place an empty chair in front of you,

and in faith see Jesus on the chair.

It's not spooky because he promised,

'I will be with you always'.

"Then just speak to him in the same way

you're doing with me right now."

"So, I tried it and I've liked it so much that I do it

a couple of hours every day.


I'm careful though

If my daughter saw me talking to an empty chair,

she'd either have a nervous breakdown

or send me off to the funny farm."


The minister was deeply moved by the story

and encouraged the old man to continue on the journey

Then he prayed with him,

anointed him

with oil,

and returned to the church.


Two nights later the daughter called

to tell the minister that her daddy had died that afternoon.

Did he die in peace?" he asked.

Yes, when I left the house about two o'clock,

he called me over to his bedside,

told me he loved me

and kissed me on the cheek.

When I got back from the store an hour later,

I found him dead.

But there was something strange about his death.

Apparently, just before Daddy died,

he leaned over and rested his head

on the chair beside the bed.

What do you make of that?"


The minister wiped a tear from his eye and said,

"I wish we could all go like that."


If everyone of us has the same faith like what the man in the story does, Think again, I guess it so nice to know that if your time comes, it doesn't hard to accept it because you know JESUS is there by your side.
