     1.9 +- colored shower head :: a shower head add on that measures the temp
    1.10 +     of the water and changes the color of the water streams w/ an LED
    1.11 +     to show you the temperature. That way you can align to the color
    1.12 +     you want and see the temperature without feeling it.

    1.14 +- giant dragonflies :: we could rapidly MAKE giant dragonflies by
    1.15 +     evolving modern dragonflies in an very oxygen rich environment!

    1.17 +- anesthetic surgery courtesty video :: as a matter of courtesy,
    1.18 +     whenever you go under anesthetic, the doctors should provide you
    1.19 +     with a video of the surgery / recovery after you are concious
    1.20 +     again. The recording should begin about 3 minutes before
    1.21 +     anesthetic, and continue until both you and the docor agree to
    1.22 +     stop recording, or you leave the hospital.

    1.24 +- whirlpool of light :: shine a laser out into space. But the planet
    1.25 +     is spinning! What you get is a spiral or light! And as this
    1.26 +     signal expands, does it eventually reveal it's wuantized nature?

    1.32 +- timestamp verification :: you sign your message, and it has a
    1.33 +     timestamp at the top, with a +- percision number.  Then you send
    1.34 +     it over to the public timestamp server, which only signs the
    1.35 +     message if it gets the message within the timestamp window. Or
    1.36 +     the computer just signs the message but puts a timestamp at the
    1.37 +     beginning. So if everyone trusts the timestamp server, you can
    1.38 +     get reliable timestamps, and prove priority on ideas, etc.

    1.40  - the great computing slow-down :: in general, our computers are
    1.41       getting faster and faster. However, eventually our brains will be
