frustratedpilotHey.
I've had this idea for months now. I wanted Mum to help me with it, but she's too busy with her own projects and so I'd been sitting on it. The problem is, that this is an idea subject to artist subjection, and there are conceivably many ways to accomplish it, so Patenting the idea is right out. Besides, my experience with the headhunters at Davidson has soured me on the idea of making a living from an invention.
And as this idea is too good not to share, I'm making it completely PUBLIC DOMAIN. Me. Stephen Bierce, August 24th 2009.
You see, as good as the reusable shopping bag is, a man on his own will not just carry one. Thus he continues to consume disposable shopping bags just for machismo's sake.
But a man will wear a butch macho muscle vest. Give any man one and he'll wear it, if only to deride his fellow men.
So the idea?--a muscle vest that can also be unfolded at the store to become a reusable shopping bag! The guy can wear it over his usual street clothes whenever he goes shopping, make a show of taking it off in front of the cashier girls, load it up with his purchases and say to the world "I'm a man, and I can carry it off both ways!"
I dare the world of textiles and fashion to pick up this ball and run with it. So there.
