So…the guy who invented the Segway has got a brain on his shoulders. No one can argue that. My wife and I first became aware of his talents when we got to see a demonstration of a wheelchair he developed that could stand on its own, balance itself without falling over even when pushed hard, and even climb stairs. For those keeping up, those same ideas and technology were eventually put into the aforementioned personal transportation device. Well, it seems the neurons were firing once again as Dean Kamen has now released a new invention that can convert ANY liquid (including wine) into clean drinking water (get the joke) and enough electricity to power 70 light bulbs. On top of that, Kamen claims it will only cost $1000-2000 when available.
So…how many churches are ready to line up and buy cargo holds full of these devices to help struggling people groups around the world? Check out the video of him on Colbert.
