      From: treon3verdery@gmail.com              Stents that dissolve could be endoscopically placed at the lungs to treat COPD       and other things, drug eluting stents already exist but it is possible ice       cream sandwich stents could have value              I have read about stage musicians at performances wearing in-ear speakers so       they can hear their own instruments, the focalized audio technology that can       follow the person could possibly be used instead              Hormesis is when something bad for you is good for you in (usually) much       smaller doses, ionizing radiation is one of them, minute amounts of ethanol       double the lifespan of c elegans although ethanol is deleterious to humans,       they could make molecular        variants and screen them for hormetic benefits that are higher and at a wider       dose range like minute doses of butanol, propanol, pnetyl, hexyl, heptyl, or,       with ionizing radiation specific particle energies, more than 600 hormetic       chemicals have been        published              They could make checkerboard ice cream sandwiches # so each bite had a       different flavor and heightening flavor deliciousness so as you travelled       along the ice cream sandwich path, the ice cream would get even more delicious       and likely sweeter and sweeter        and call it Journey or something              I read about an autonomous bicycle that Combines several computer       architectures into one AI, this would be beneficial at powered exoskeletons,       and there are many possible applications, it is possible a vestibular sense       comfort drug could make using these        more pleasant and even fun, if the drug reduces other illnesses that would be       beneficial, one drug betahistine lowers blood pressure and does not have       sedative effects, it may have some localization to the vestibular system,       variations on this drug that        lower blood pressure slightly among the well (say 119 to 114) could prevent       some disease, if it does localize to the vestibular system then they can       screen molecules that do this better, find one that has high localization but       no drug effect then attach        it to a new molecule that effects neurons, noting over 100 different kinds of       neurotransmitter neurons a couple of the rarer neurotransmitter neurons       interrupting or downplaying vestibular responsiveness (too much causes vertigo       and dizziness) could        decrease dizziness and vertigo with minimal effects on cognition and       personality, look for the rare and localized neurons and drug them, sparing       cognition, emotion and personality              Some antivertigo drugs cause a rebound effect actually upregulating       sensitivity, it is possible drugs that very mildly upregulated vestibular       output while completely asleep would make it so there was resistance to       vertigo and dizziness while awake, also,        there could possibly be an absence of vertigo while asleep because the person       is laying flat and not moving much              I read dizziness effects people, there is likely a genetic component that can       be addressed with gene therapy              The green revolution contained breeding wheat with shorter varieties to cause       plants with a higher grain to stalk ratio, using the photosynthetic food more       efficiently, I do not know if they have screened mycorhizzial ecology for       fungi and bacteria that        cause plants to be shorter, if they do they could find these fairly easily by       measuring the height of identical strains of grains at different geographical       regions and soil types and finding the 9.99th percentile of actual grain:hay       mass ratio, they        could also combine the genes of the 99th percentile grain:hay ratio ones to       find out if that can produce a better grain:hay ratio than even the 99.9th       percentile mycorhizzial ecology              When oil and liquid hydrocarbons flow underground they have some moisture in       them and I think detergents               Oil wells come in different lengths/depths and I have read about having pumps       at the tops and base of a well, because oil wells come in different lengths       there is a place in the middle of the tube where another pump could raise       pressure to get oil out,        wires for power already reach the base, a mid-depth of tube pump could be semi       robotic, able to move, and having something like extensible drum brakes that       transversely extend out to fix it in place, there are many approaches to a       simple rugged pump but        a stack of >>> chevrons with one way flaps on them that moves up and down       could do it as well as a screw pump, I think this might be called an inline       pump, you just push the mid-pump down the hole to where engineers or computer       models think it should go              Some students learn well from educational software, there could be a quick       diagnostic where people learn something then they get a quiz three days later       and a psychometric test to find out if their personality is like those       students that keep up and pass,        those that do well could have online college and perhaps high school       coursework advertised to them in a favorable light, universities already have       endowed scholarships, those students the computer program projects would       actually raise their GPAs from        online coursework could get scholarships              I may have calculated that over the course of its life, each century an       evergreen tree produces 40,000 seeds, and if a forest remains the same size       produces 1 plant to replace itself, I think that could go up an order of       magnitude with 10 seeds surviving        to mature trees, genetically engineering evergreen seeds that survive the       digestive tracts of herbivores (squirrels), drought resistance, and possibly       make birth control peptides and proteins could do this as well, immunity to       "do not germinate"        chemicals other plants make could also assist, the trees could be beautiful,       tall and useful, this would also work with non evergreen deciduous trees              Nootropics modified to be body side only of the blood brain barrier could       benefit reaction times and physical motion abilities like dance without       effecting cognition, making them hydrophilic, negatively charged and attaching       certain amino acids to them        to make them more than 400 AMU could keep them on the body side of the blood       brain barrier              Dopamine is a rewarding neurotransmitter, dopamine antagonists that stay on       the body side of the blood brain barrier could cause greater longevity                      [continued in next
