Hi,
I thought some of you might be interested in how NASA has improved, and continues to improve, our day-to-day life. From batteries for electric cars to force feedback joysticks for home entertainment to foam mattresses that conform to your body. This site (http://www.sti.nasa.gov/tto/) contains all that information (check out the spinoff database, just enter a word in the "topic search" field and click search) and more.
Yes, doing things "out there" is the job of NASA, but as this site reveals having that job has generated ~.001% of all patents ever issued by the US Patent office has lead to quite a few spinoffs.

Hey Russ,
I missed the cutoff for this. Did you do it? I sure am glad that you put the information out there for us to access if we want to, or remember to.
