    MINDSET RANT 
    Darn, you nailed it beautifully! It's so easy to get stuck in ego-fog-mode that we forget about the other person's worries. We just need these clarion-calls once in a while.

    Apple Watch... Yea or Nay?

    HOT! 
    People will buy it because it's Apple, it's stylish, it's what everybody else does. Personally I won't get one. We're already media-zombies. No "real" need for more distractions.

    NOTABLE! 
    Great idea. I'd think students/poeple would buy these for the fun part of it but not for saving lives. "Let's see who drank the most," and such.
