More Great Ideas!

Ryan and Juanita have suggested more ideas based on the chirp beep for dead cell phones.
Ryan thinks there should definitely be a clapper for lost cell phones and Juanita thinks a chirp for lost remote controls could work, or a button on the television that locates the remote control like the one used on wireless house phone bases.
I would love for someone to invent a device that sucks dust out of the air before it settles constantly on my flat surfaces. I even researched those negative ion things online for about two hours to see if it might have already been invented in some way. Hasn't NASA invented something on this track? Dust can't be good when you're trying to get back home from the Moon, or whatever.
I used to clean at IBM (in another life many years ago) and they had rooms called clean rooms that even the janitors couldn't go into. I didn't like the looks of them much, but they had somehow eradicated all dust.
So, the inventor of a dust-free house is definitely going to get my money for this invention.
It could be a conspiracy in which the manufacturers of dust-bunny eradicators do not want dust-busting consumers to stop buying New & Improved, Lemon-scented dusting stuff. That would really bug me more than dust. And dust REALLY bugs me!

    Call me crazy but I'm thinking that can't be too far from the truth.

    I would imagine that if the clean rooms were that clean then people dust them up. You really want dust free people. Thus we should all be wrapping ourselves in cellophane to stop helping to produce the dust (since more than half of it is dead skin cells and stuff we put there anyway). Hence, a good invention might be a once a week dust sucker that you can turn on like a heater while you leave your house (clean rooms don't get clean while you're IN them) and then come back in your new cellophane outfit.

    So what we really need is clothing companies to invent cellophane suits that stop us from shedding all of the stuff that makes our houses so dusty! Like astronaut suits that don't themselves produce dust.

  2. P.S. Be careful with that conspiracy stuff. Next thing you know you'll hit on some real thing and then we'll hear about your untimely demise.
