Judge: What have you got this year, sir?
Scientist 1: I call it the transistor. It's a small semiconductor device that, when placed in a circuit, can amplify or switch the electrical current on or off.
Judge: Hm, yes. So you've basically invented a tiny light switch?
Scientist 1: Well uh, no, it's actually much more complex and practical than that-
Judge: Right, well, good for you then. Moving along...oh my goodness, sir, what is this divine creation?!
Scientist 2: I call them "Dippin' Dots." They're like ice cream, but shaped into tiny balls.
Judge: Fascinating! It's like the ice cream of the future...and we could charge six dollars for a tiny cup of it at amuse-a-toriums!
Scientist 1: But sir, my invention could stand as the most important device of the 20th century! We could use these transistors to create complex integrated circuits for storing great quantities of data and-
Judge: (pinning blue ribbon on Scientist 2) I think we have a winner.
