Doug: I'm sure your idea is a fine one, but I have great experience in the conversion of good ideas to executed success stories, and the rate is about .0005%. One thing I have also learned is there are very few truly original ideas. The only "original" ideas really left are ideas that 10 people are working on and only 1 will get to market first. There are many Concept to Market ideas out there you should investigate that will kick some reality back into any claim of "this idea is worth millions and someone will pay me that if I choose to reveal it". I personally could care little about your revealling your idea. A victim of inventor's paranoia myself, I don't believe anyone should hastily reveal their ideas. Keep it to yourself but be forewarned, you're not likely to get any real audience nor are you likely ever to receive a penny for it. If you are not looking for any profit in it then, shoot, just call up some CEOs and tell'm. If you think you can get a CEO to sign a nondisclosure agreement and agree to meet with you so you can arrange a "consulting" agreement that will reward you for your idea, no offense but that's not going to happen. Go play the lottery. Your odds are better. If you have a legitimate idea, then you ought to brace yourself for VERY hard work in ever profiting off of it. If you are prepared to devote yourself to your idea 24 hrs a day, you stand a slim chance of making it happen. Otherwise, stick to your day job. I only offer this with good intentions though it does sound admittedly negative. Take care.
