I just wrote to Trudeau’s contact person that I thought it would be great if Alex would get Toggle into the Sixth Sense testing program at MIT. I know I keep talking about it but in case you’ve missed it, here’s a link: http://tiny.cc/zeY4s

The sixth sense project is really cool. Pattie Maes is brilliant and so is Pranav Mistry.

Well done, Garry.

To pibfan868; I agree with attyush. Fascinating talk. At first I thought it was a joke, but as I continued to watch the video I gradually realized that it was an indication of how out of touch I am with the research.

Thanks for watching–I’ve been so tickled that more than one person in a public position has been able to help us move forward on solar cooking, internet connectivity, and water conservation, but this deal with Patti Maes and Pranav Mistry is definitely way outside something I’d have ever thought of–I hope it can be used for the blind with “talk buds”.
