Can certainly put something together. Maybe it'll turn out better than that ill-fated HA paper. ;-) The funny thing is that I had a wiki page on my site for project ideas at one point but I deleted it a few weeks ago because the ideas were rather stale.

Maybe my answer would be "remember me in the credits"! I really wish I could remember the site but I thought it was something like "if I had the time" (I checked, that's not it). That seemed to be the spirit of the site, i.e. "Here's an idea I'm incapable of bringing to fruition...". So maybe I just made up a good idea, what say we build the thing? Hey Kyle,

The best example I've ever come across of someone freely sharing ideas is <a href="http://domino.research.ibm.com/comm/research_people.nsf/pages/ssadams.index.html" rel="nofollow">Sam Adams</a>. He was a fountain of ideas and usually had so many there was no way he could research or patent them all. His answer was always "keep it!".
