So no one thinks this is just the coolest thing in the whole world? This guy, an inventor, spent 11 years trying to invent colored bubbles. 3M and others had been trying for a long time and had given up. The applications beyond just this are immense. Imagine trying out a paint color, on your wall, and after 30 minutes, it simply vanishes. Or toothpaste which colors your kids teeth blue until they've brushed for 30 seconds.
We're talking extreme perseverence.
I read the article this morning... it really is very interesting!
I can't wait to buy some Zubbles when they come out!
Thank you Else. Now I feel validated.
I want to start a new fan club. This guy is a modern-day Bell! What he lacked in knowledge he made up for in persistence, in spades!
totally facinating!
That is pretty cool!
VERY cool! I love it when people are able to make some cash making me smile.
