my "silly applications" are what i could use. i realize that critical
medical usages of technology are first priority. but i don't have any
medical uses i need. bolstering my skeletal system would be preventive
medicine, in that regard.

sorry about your vertebra. i prefer powered flight. almost as
scary(sometimes) and a lot longer range.
