Found this gem while reading some headlines. Guy creates remote that mutes certain people he finds annoying, I say Noble Prize worthy.

I don't know, when you've got my connections it's more just a matter of opportunity.

They should really try to add that lower the volume for the commercials thing, seriously those damn commercials always piss me off when they start and suddenly everything is twice as loud as it was before, if they ad that this thing will be a must buy!

Stories like this give me hope that I too can one day do something better-than-average with my spare time. Really clever to say the least.
