Two things about this idea gathering thing: 1) Companies have people whose job is to generate ideas. Problem is they are corseted by the peer pressure they suffer if they allude to the fact that the factory of remote subscriber stage should be dismantled and shipped to China. 2) Someone transvest himself (put make up, fake bra, pull the hairs off his face) and shoe up as an idea provider to sell or champion his product. The guy should be aware of those and get rid of him. Them there are those idiots like me who handover ideas for free just for the hell of it.

In 1965 two things happened: 1) I discovered (fifth grade 11 years old) that I liked to publicly humiliate the other students who were stupid. Because I kind of thought if they weren't not well endowed with that thing they had between their ears that passed as brain, they should just shut up, but unfortunately the class room was democratic. I have always been smaller than the other kids and they taught a few lessons -using muscle rather than brains- on how they were angry when I told that he had made a worse mistake that day than three weeks ago on the same subject and asked smiling: "Do you walk backwards?" The other thing I discovered was that female teachers looked good. Cut for today. I still like to humiliate those managers and businesses with their half-backed ideas. (You haven't read an ironic email form me when someone kick start his keyboard before his brains) Concerning finding females nice, I discovered that females think smart guys are sexy. Being always looking smaller than the other guys at early teens, make today look younger and the girls think that I am 35 instead of 50!! Well, anyway, when I reached senior high school third year I dropped off and decided to be a telecom specialist since the school was for stupid people. I only tell my daughter that I graduated from the university, was a good student, and took all my home work serious. She's 7. When she get out of school I will tell her the true!! But the genes don't lie. Last year, in the classroom, she threw the math home work in the dust bin in total disrespect for the teacher, saying she already knew that stuff and it was boring to repeat. Only told her never to do that again because I am the man of that house. Inside I was smiling: I loved that. Elmat genes live on! OK, back to the subject: If I would like to apply technology to problems, I would rather think about devices attached to things (like containers at Singapore harbor) instead attaching contraptions to people. Like wearable mobile phones etc. There are only "few" people but there's a whole lot of things, machines, traffic signs,... Better to make communications between things than between people. PS; My former collegues went to university graduated and made less money than I did. And I also have had more fun than they did and intend to continuing doing so.
