Wednesday search challenge (6/12/13): Who came up with this big idea?

Today's search challenge is a great example of a couple of skills--great for teaching students how/when/when to use advanced operators.  

This is from regular reader Tasha.  (Thanks!)  

Challenge:  

1.  His poetry tells us that life is just a little of the good and of the bad, but he dreamed big and is credited with the idea of creating a well-known national landmark.  What is his name?     

2.  Once you've figured out who had this big idea, the landmark we see today is not what he originally envisioned.  What was his original plan for the national landmark? 

As usual, be sure to tell us both how long you took to find the answer, and what you did in order to find the answers? 

Search on!
