Trevor

While we were still living in Wisconsin, we were watching the Discovery Channel one snowy evening and there was a program about the not-so-famous inventor Trevor Baylis . Along with developing the wind-up radio for use in third world countries, Trevor has also devoted some of his inventive talents to the disabled by inventing devices to help them perform normal daily activities on their own. More recently he has come up with a really interesting product that helps individuals generate their own power for cellphones, walkmans and other personal electronic appliances.

So back to my Trevor. Tara and I were so impressed with Trevor Baylis' devotion to developing products that would help people in need (and we liked his name) that we added Trevor Baylis to the top of our boy name list. As we got closer to the due date, we ultimatley dropped the "Baylis" as a potential middle name.

Hi my name Mr Geoffrey Woods age 59 years old and I am Dyslexic, but I have some
ideas that I think might work, Many thanks for taking the time to read my Ideas.
Ideas A hat for some one who is an Epileptic, when the person who is wearing
this hat and has a fit, a bleeding noise will sound and then you will know that
the person has fallen down and need your help? An idea for keeping your boat
cleaner and stopping the birds from crapping on it? A prissier mat for ducks and
sea gulls and if they stand on it would i.e. make a noise or a light could flash
on and off. It all could be done on a 6 volt batty. A foot ball rattle that when
you spin it shouts out your team name out. A idea for your push bike at night,
something’s put on your spokes that will slide up and down when your wheel goes
around and it could light up so you can be seen at night, If you have got a cat
or dog this is for you, a microwave put under your hover so when you do your
house cleaning it will kill all flee and bugs in the carpet and it could clean
your bed from flees and bugs also. An arm rest that could fit round your wrist
with Velcro to fit your wrist, so when you are on your computer you do not get a
bad wrist. T V Show or web-site, Look what I can do? It is for people who can do
any thing they think that you can not do??? I.e. take your eye out or bend your
arm around your back or any silly thing that people would and could do just to
get two minuets of fame. Cleaning your hands when you have been to the toilet?
Only 54% of man clean there hands when they have used the toilet, when one
washes there hands after going to the toilet you dry your hands on a hand dryer,
( hot hair from and hand dryer ) So one could put something in side the hand
dryer that could put out some disinfection when one is drying there hands. This
is for someone who is on a train and might full asleep, it could be your phone
or a kind of pen that let you know when you have got to your station, (e i) you
could put in on your phone the name of the station and it would ring when you
got to your station,
