Student reports
Aaron Urbina - armor for police
Della Rowley - better Christmas tree lights
Alan Simons - backpack beer dispenser
Mike Tucker - communication system for prescriptions
Mark Inkster - appropriate technology (not written)
David Higgs - moving sidewalks
I might ask Urbina, Tucker, Inkster and Higgs if they want to elaborate
their ideas. Rowley and Simons should be asked to come up with better
ideas.

General notion: what capabilities to I want them to have? Simple

Criteria for evaluating proposals
1. How much is it worth? How much does it cost?
2. Does it require laws to implement it? If so, what opposition
can you predict?
3. How many people have to adopt it so that anyone gets the benefit
or so that the costs are reasonable?
Activation ring for guns. Prevents people from grabbing policemen's guns.
Prevents children from shooting.
Can one be made that can be retrofitted?
Does it require a law?
