We often hear that the achievements of women are minimised and instead the glory and credit is given to the men who were involved. That may be true but the reverse is true too.

Hedy Lamarr is frequently help up today as the discoverer of spread spectrum and frequency hopping technology.
- was codiscoverer of spread spectrum and frequency hopping tchnology
George Antheil, developed spread spectrum and frequency hopping
Amelia Earhart - had a man with her
