OK. This kid is just too cool. He reminds me of me a little and he is doing what I would love to be doing right now. He found a problem, researched it on the internet, did some testing, got turned down, and then found a way to do it anyways and blew everyone out of the water! There are so many things about him and his situation that remind me of myself. Bored with traditional methods of training and instruction. Nobody has bothered to re-evaluate or change the way things had been done before. He challenged the thinking. Used his brain and logic and a little determination along with the power of the internet and completely revolutionized part of healthcare which could affects hundreds or thousands of people. And best of all, he isn't doing it to make money. Its all about the science and benefitting others. I wish I was doing what he is doing.
