It is been said that ‘great minds think alike’ but I think it needs an amendment or rather an addition. ‘Great minds think alike and meet the same doom fate.’ Yah, if you sit and recall all great innovations made till date, you will realize they have to bear the critical comments passed and digest the tag of being outrageously crazy with no purpose. But mind you they are not at fault as the general public has become habitual to castigate whatever comes without taking the pain of doing certain R& D over it. Call those minds scientific or artistic, they know their destiny. I know surfacing my opinion on this critical topic is not easy therefore I would love to shield myself by exemplifying the invention made by Harold Hay (98) almost 40 years ago.

Don’t label me insane for bringing forth 40-year-old deal but idea is to do justice to the great mind who found the way to warm and cool the temperature of your dwelling via using technique called Skytherm. Mind you it has nothing to do with your much-in-se ACs. Without using electricity, it has the tendency monitor the room temperature. To my much-surprise, it is not solar power but water that acts as a prop for Harold.

The only glitch identified is with the design that demands every home needs to be reconstructed from its roots for its effective working. True, it is not an easy task and also cribbing had it been 40 years back won’t give us any solution. Let’s accept reality and calculate the permutations and combination of the cost factors involved. Rightly said is the fact that science doesn’t aim to set thing right on the first go but making effort till you get it right. It applies well on Harold’s creation as even today if it gets worthy welcome from us then he will feel himself the blessed one and won’t die with the regret of burial of his invention with his body. I wish some great follower is thinking to materialize this concept.
