This is from a great article on NPR about Joel Spira, the inventor of the residential dimmer and president of the fantastic dimmer manufacturer Lutron, who passed away recently.
I have a friend who worked at Lutron and was growing a serious beard. He was worried that HR might tell him he had to shave it off, but one day as he was entering work, Mr. Spira saw him and said, “Nice beard!” My friend never worried about his beard after that!
