I came across an article that I thought would interest some here. I
know nothing about it, it just seemed interesting.

"Inventor's 2020 vision: to help 1bn of the world's poorest see
better"

That took me to here:

Hm. I use Google Groups to access s.m.v., and Otis's post (that you
quote) doesn't appear.

I wonder if even HE realized what an idiot he is, and then deleted
it.

He should adjust that threshold downward, significantly.
