For whatever reason, science sometimes has a bad name. Maybe it has to do with religion and faith. Religion and faith, relies on a "leap of faith", which, of course, is why they call it faith, not fact.
Science is based on proven research and facts and its knowledge governed accordingly. Oddly enough, I happen to be a person of faith, but I guess my theory of faith, and there being a higher power is a bit different than many. I do not look at God as a big force in the sky scrutinizing our every move, pondering if we get to go to the big place upstairs or downstairs post-life.
My theory, as pollyanna-ish as it may seem, is that He works through people, including scientists, to make the world a better place.
I have seen, what I feel is God working through man/or woman in science, politics, medicine, and yes, even law. Of course I have seen the opposite work in all these arenas and more, but I tend to believe that is man's own free will and nothing to do with religion or faith.
Upon surfing the net, not long ago I came across an invention on the Internet that is patent-pending, created by cartoonist Rick London. I was astonished. I have known him since my university masters work, always knew he was a cartoonist, but the discovery of his being an inventor came as a shock.
Upon reading of the Invention, and watching the short powerpoints on his North American Satellite Systems, Inc. website, I felt this is exactly what I mean by a higher power working through a human. The whole idea, the concept, the beauty of it, has a spiritual nature all its own.
We have all seen the medical alert device with the commercial "Help I've fallen and I can't get up". Rick London's Insert Alert makes that obsolete. It is worn as jewelry, can be worn anywhere in the world, does not require a button to be pushed, is fully computerized/automated, dials the nearest 9-1-1 anywhere in the world, has satellite tracking, stores medical records, the wearer can be unconscious and it still does the work, even monitors vital signs and oxygen proximity. I have never seen anything quite so amazing.
In addition to all the other features, the device even calls 9-1-1 if the wearer has a medical emergency and is not aware of it. Thousands if not tens of thousands of heart attacks, are ignored and thought to be indigestion. But not with this device. It even knows the difference, even if the wearer does not, and dials the nearest emergency or medical center, even in Tibet.
I am certain the West Virginia shootings would have minimal at most, the minute the students were lined up. If even one was wearing the device, his/her blood pressure would have risen high enough to alert the nearest emergency unit. It is very possible not one shooting would have occurred. And I won't even begin to start with the number of kidnapped and/or tortured soldiers in Iraq. It is an amazing device and I surely hope it makes it to the market soon. I cannot think of a person on this nutty planet who could not be a customer.
Even the senior engineer of IBM, Dr. Andrew Beiler says this will raise the bar of medical technology the way we have perceived it for the past decade.
I was in communications with Rick recently. He is going on the ABC American Inventor show to try to raise money to build a prototype and sell the license to it.
When I think of all the lives this will save, from military to hunters, to hikers to skiers to the elderly, to anyone, I think, this is what I mean by God working through humans. It appears Rick London has tapped into that theory and uses it wisely. Congratulations Rick. You have come a very long way.
