<!-- Dr. Johannes Hint Johannes Hint (Johannes Rudolph Hint 20. September 1914 Kuusnõmme Parish, Saaremaa - 5. September Patarei Prison, Tallinn) was an Estonian-born technology scientist, technology doctorate (1963) and the only man who created and successfully ran a limited company in a deeply communist Soviet Union. He earned millions to the Soviet Union with his limited company Dessim. Johannes Hint's Main scientific invention was building material silikatsiit (laprex), which was developed through the execution of disintegrator system. Hint's scientific inventions are still internationally and widely used in Germany, Austria, USA, Japan and Russia. Over 200 scientific publications, 62 inventions and 28 patents are on his name.

Early life and Education Johannes Hint was born in Kuusnõmme, a small fishing village in the west of Saaremaa island, Estonia on 20th September 1914. His father Alexander Hint was a sailor and a member of the government in the first Estonian Republic and belonged to the commission who decided upon the design for the official Estonian flag. His mother Mare Hint was a housewife. He had 2 brothers and a sister - his brother Aadu Hint (Adolf Edmund Hint) became an acknowledged communist writer in the Soviet Union. Konstantin Hint studied science in Tallinn's Technology University. Sister Amanda Hint was a pedagogue. In 1933 Johannes graduated Saaremaa Ühisgümnaasium (Saaremaa Gymnasium) concentrating on studying science. From 1933-1934, he undertook an undergraduate degree in prestigious Tartu Ülikool (Tartu University) in mathematics and from 1935-1936 he continued his studies in the same technology department majoring in building technology. In 1941 he graduated as a building engineer from Tallinn's Polytechnical Institute.

Career From 1961-1966 Hint was the head of operations of The Soviet Union Institute of technological research and projects of Silikatsiit (Silicalcite/Laprex) and between 1974-1981 the head of the construction and technological limited company Desintegraator (Disintegrator), which he established. Desintegraator (Disintegrator) joined forces with Austrian company Simmering-Graz-Paucker in 1977 and together they established an international company "Dessim", which was the first and possibly only successfully ran business collaboration between the Soviet Union and the Western World.

Scientific Activity Johannes Hint manipulated for decades with Rotary Impact Mill or Contra Rotating Mill- Disentegrator. Disentigrator processes the mixture due fine grinding and mechanical activation of material components with water, which further strengthened autoclave effects. For example, Hint complemented Albert Einstein's mass and energy formula. Silicatsite (Laprex) factories were opened initially in Estonia butthen all over the Soviet Union as well as in Japan and Italy. His companies and organisations didn't only concentrate on building materials but also manufactured and distributed universal disentigrator- activator and UDA technology. Universal disntigrator-activator was universal manufacturing theory. From 1978-1981, "Disentigrator" began the trial production of biotechnological products. Especially popular were food preparates that contained bioactive substances, gaining notoriety as "quack remedy" and was distributed, not only across the Soviet Union, but also to the Western World. Two of the preparates medical qualities and effects, AU-8 (for inner application) and L-1 (for external application), were classified after Johannes Hint had been rehabilitated and the production was stopped. In the current day, these preparates would have been widely acknowledged as food preservatives, as journalist Siim Kallas confirmed in his 1988 article published in "Rahva Hääl", since similar biological samples heralded in a few years later started the nutrition therapy boom in the West.

Death On 13th of November 1981, Johannes Hint was arrested by the government officials under fabricated charges againt him. The long court case was finalised in December, 1983. The result of the highly political court case indicated Johannes Hint as guilty in abuse of office and sentenced to prison for 15 years. Hint's national prizes, rewards and honours including scientific degrees and title were annulled and all his possessions were confiscated as the result of the court ruling. Hint died at Patarei prison hospital on 5th of September 1985 and is buried in Metsakalmistu, Tallinn. The Supreme Court of Soviet Union rehabilitated Johannes Hint entirely on the 25th of April, 1989. Hint's titles of honours and scientific degrees were fully rehabilitated and some of his confiscated possessions were returned posthumously.

Marriage and Family Johannes Hint met Helju when they were both students at university and attended a student gathering in 1938. Johannes decided to walk Helju home after the gathering, as the sky was covered with stars that night, Johannes engaged Helju in a conversation about stars and astrology, which he took high interest in.They married in 1939 and had 3 children together- Anne, Reino and Pille.

Political Activity Johannes Hint was a member of the Estonian Communist Party between 1941-1943. He was persuaded by his brother Aadu Hint, who later became a famous communist author in the Soviet Union, to join the party. In 1943, he was arrested by the Nazis who were occupying Estonia, as Hint was blacklisted as a communist, he was put to Nazi concentration camp in Estonia to await his execution. Hint managed to escape the camp and flee to nearby Helsinki, Finland on a little fisher boat, crossing the Gulf of Finland in the middle of the night. His plan was to flee to nearby neutral Sweden as Finland was allied with the Nazi Germany at the time but failed to do so and was arrested in Helsinki and put to war prisoners camp. He was returned to his native Estonia after the end of Second WorldWar, Estonia was now occupied by the Soviet Union. By the the end of 1960's Johannes had become deeply disappointed in the Soviet political system, and became, what can be described as a "free mind", keeping an unique individualism and distance from the political and social ideologies of the communist regime. He was openly vocal to his friends and co-workers about his feelings of disfavour regarding the Soviet Rule. Johannes Hint also had connections with the members of underground resistance, the Estonian Democratic Movement.
