I think you're inventions sound helpful. I am particularly interested in the adaptive landline. My husband and I are moving to a ranch where we don't get cell service. So I will need something like that. I should have my husband talk to you. He has made some really cool adaptive exercise equipment for me, but has no idea how to market it. Keep posting your equipment. Thanks
