Opportune time!
by shiva on Jan 22, 2009 06:26 AM

Brace for impact, like the pilot said! US is in a deep hole which they are filling up by printing money in a hurry. How it pans out, nobody knows. It is like putting out fire when other issues take a back seat.

We were also beneficiary to the exhuberance of American dream gone sour. Their best brains were making money out of thin air. Hard-core engineering took a back seat. It is like when the emperor was naked, it took a child to scream so, as others took the safer route! We also rode piggy-back on US.

The reality is staring at us now. Unbridled cosumerism was raping mother earth! We were pledging our childrens' future for our immediate pleasures.

It is time we went to basics. Self-reliance is basic to survival. Africa is not affected by the over-kill as they stuck to basics. For us, we have our strenghts. We have everything except energy indepenedence. But our best minds can overcome with some sacrifice. And we need to fire up our cylinders of innovation! Why indirectly stoke extremism through oil imports like US realises now? Obama's pledge to make them energy independent will create 5 million jobs. Japan & Korea also following suit. China is getting big in clean fuels. We can wean away from the polluting oil with wind, solar, bio-fuel etc. The sum total will lead us to nirwana! We can piggy-ride on others but calibrate to our terrain! Why re-invent the wheel?

The lower oil prices is a breathing space before another deluge! Hit when the iron is hot,now!

I HAVE DEVELOPED NEW DRIVING MECHANISM FOR BICYCLE/RICKSHAW HAVING FOLLOWING ADVANTAGES OVER CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM.

I AM READY TO SELL THE INVENTION ALONG WITH PATENT RIGHTS / COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT & SELLING RIGHTS ON MUTUALLY AGREED TERMS & CONDITIONS.

IN CASE YOUR COMPANY IS INTERESTED, PL. CONTACT ME. MY MOBILE NO. IS 919424140739.

1. Both legs can drive simultaneously: Due to independent nature of driving
both of the legs can be utilised for driving simultaneously whenever required.
This will help in dead start or accelerating with high load at step gradients or
rough tar rain etc.

2. Continuous driving torque: The driving force on the rear wheel (s) will be a
continuous one. As soon as a leg finishes its driving stroke the other leg will
start its driving stroke and hence virtually there will be no time of zero torque.

3. More force than driver’s weight can be applied without fatigue: The
backrest provided will give support to driver in such a way that by utilising
reaction from backrest, the driver can put on force more than his own weight
whenever required.

4. No stress in portion above the waist: Due to same backrest, there will be
no stress developed above the waist and back pen and hand tension will be
eliminated.

5. More angle turned by thighs & knees ensure more force available when
required: Due to position of seat and paddle, the angle turned through by
thigh and knee for any stroke of driving will be more than corresponding angl

by Salil Pradeep Gandhi on Jan 21, 2009 02:13 PM

Indians are innovative ... I myself have arnd 9 patents filed.. but believe the Indian bureaucracy and loopholes in management skills is telling.. innovative indians go to US to file patents ..becoz they are not recognised here ...
