I would encourage the construction of a high speed train from our metropolis to our capital to diminish the car death rate.

Steve Mann on wearable computers:

"Every morning I decide how I will see the world that day. Sometimes I give myself eyes in the back of my head. Other days I add a sixth sense, such as the ability to feel objects at a distance. If I'm going to ride my bicycle, I'll want to feel the cars and trucks pressing against my back, even when they are a few hundred feet away."

"Equipped with various sensors which measure heart rate (and waveform), respiration, footstep rate (and waveform), etc., the apparatus can function as a personal safety device for reducing crime, as well as a personal health monitor for improving health care by encouraging individuals to take an active role in diagnosis and body-maintenance"

an inexpensive wearable device for the detection of noxious substances in the air would be nice , too.
