Useful safety concept?
"Chuck Gould" wrote in message ps.com... JimH wrote: "Chuck Gould" wrote in message oups.com... This was in this morning's email. Presented here as an interesting idea, so the specific contact details for additional information or purchase information have been eliminated from this post. In the unlikely event that somebody would be interested in contacting the firm that makes this device, Email me at and I'll send the contact info via that route: ********* Hi Chuck, snip Grant Chuck, remind me again how this is not SPAM. Gladly: 1) I have no financial interest of any kind in the item described. 2) There is no pricing or commercial contact information included, (in fact, it was deleted), merely a description of a new product. 3) I do have contact information available to anybody interested via email- but I didn't post that here to *avoid* falling into a spam category. Spam is a commercial solicitation in a non-commercial venue. If somebody wants the commercial solicitation, I will put them on the track to get it- but it isn't appearing here. 4) There is no personal endorsement or recommendation that anybody actually purchase one of these for any purpose, merely an invitation to discuss whether such a device by this or some other manufacturer with a similar concept might be a useful safety device. 1. You mentioned the manufacturer 2. The manufacturer mentioned the specific product by name 3. You offered to act as a distributor for the manufacturer If it smells like a duck and quacks like a duck........... What you should have said: ====================== "I received an email from my brother in law........ummm....I mean a manufacturer of a safety product for boaters and would like your opinions on it. The company manufactures a device that is worn either around the child's wrist or on their lifevest or around the pet's collar or lifevest and sends a wireless signal to a base station (positioned anywhere on the boat) if the child or pet falls overboard. The base station then alarms loudly so that the adults on board know immediately that there is a child/pet that has fallen overboard and can rush to help." What do you think? ============================ Personally I think that anyone who leaves a child unsupervised around water, even for a minute, is insane. |

JimH, I wish you would stop being the NG net nanny, no one likes that. Your netcopping has repeated the same post many times more than Chuck did. |

These words of wisdom comes from someone who didn't replace his impeller on a used boat, that no one knew how long it had been since the impeller was changed. Then was surprised when the impeller broke and the engine overheated. Based upon last years season of boating, JimH should make everyone who steps aboard his boat use one of these. Heck, he really should install one on his boat. |
