The greatest inventions are not here yet!

Eyeglass frames made by “The Clapper Co.” where every time you set them down you could find them. If you can’t see them to find them you simply “clap your hands” and you find them just where you left them.

New hair for balding men made by “Chia Pet Co.” where they change from just “green growth” to different shades of brown and black hair. Men could put Chia Pet on this bald spots and within days after watering it would grow and cover that area with a new darker patch of fluff.

The Special “Quiet” Button made by Staples Easy Button Co. added in the car so when you stopped at a red light and hear all the unwanted music coming from another car near you, all you had to do was press the Quiet button and “their” radio gets “smoked” with no sound coming from it.

A “coffee cup” that never gets empty ~ no matter how much you drink it remains full.

A “BBQ grill” that whenever it starts smoking, it always blows “away” from you instead of into your face.

Teleportation of that which one is bereft.

A couple of side notes:

They are working on a pill you can take that will color your hair.

They have already created nano machines that will be injected into your body and enter cells. They will diagnose the cell and either report back if it is cancerous, or has other problems, or it will inject a correcting medicine or virus to correct the problem.

You can buy a spray on (the same one cities and states use) that will keep the ice and snow from forming on your drives and walks. I can't remember how much for sure, but I seem to think it will take care of several inches of snow. You can buy it at Home Depot. http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qn4155/is_20001217/ai_n13892578 (broken link)

Snap On Teeth! http://www.snaponsmile.com/

I think the clap on idea is excellent, but not just for glasses. How about a small stick-on with a receiver and noise maker (like in greeting cards) that you can stick anywhere. If you habitually lose something stick one on the item and clap away! Or set it up like the find-a-phone buttons on your cordless phones.

To add the list of inventors: George Washington Carver

Yeah...but the Reese guy was better than Tesla! Peanutbutter and chocolate in one candy bar. The greatest invention ever!

A small version of the generator that powers those flashlights you shake built into your camera. When the camera is moved it trickle charges the batteries. When you walk, when you take pictures, anytime it moves it charges. Piece of cake.

Home theater that senses how many, and where, people are in the room and adjusts the volume for each speaker accordingly.

Highways of the future with electromagnetic devices running under them that power our cars. These devices are, in turn, powered by wind turbines and solar cells. The entire system is computer controlled so we can relax as we travel.

Long distance travel is on Maglev trains running down the center of the same highways powered by the same system and controlled by the same computers. 500mph more or less.
