That wasn’t really my point. A person at some point had to create this. Has who that person is been lost to the wheel of time? If someone really wanted to know who it is, is it even possible to find out?

Well it was probably a whole design team, not a single person. Unless GE kept the project plan for this toaster there’s probably no answer to your question. The entire team might be dead :)

You're just full of unhelpfulness.

THEY REALIZE IT MIGHT NOT BE EASY.

Haha well you could ask their question about every thing made ever and the answer is usually going to be boring: “a team of average to above average people in the company designed it and another team manufactured it or they outsourced the manufacturing.”
