OK…so pupa and larva aren’t two of them, but Bill Meade of BasicIP has the beginnings of an excellent post series up at Rethink(IP).  Entitled "The Six Life Stages of Inventors," it (thusfar) is a fascinating read (Life Stage #1, Life Stage #2).  The series should be required reading for every corporate patent committee.  I won’t ruin the series for you, but will tease you with his six life stages: 

1. Discovery
2. Calibration
3. Status-seeking
4. Mentoring
5. Sensing
6. Senescence
