Hello guys,

This is Shiva, Thank you all for your kind words. I take great pride in my husbands work. Whenever he has success it brings great excitement. We are both very fortunate to have such similar interests in the scientific field. As well as in our personal lives. It is hard not to take an interest in projects that may someday help all mankind, around the world. We do not do our work, for profit, fame or fortune, but to someday make it so no person has to go without the basic form of light and transportation. History has forgotten alot of great minds, that we hope to spurn an interest back in again.

It is so sad to see how a lot of woman and girls loose that spark of interest in Science, especially in a field that is most prominently dominated by males. But we have to remember to keep the imagination alive, Because in my eyes that is they key to all scientific discoveries is an active imagination, unless you can think out of the box, and be able to say "what if" even tho conventional theory states you cannot, we will not make progress, male or female.

We are both very excited about this circuit and the applications that can spawn off of it are endless, The light is just one minor application in the process. Our ultimate goal is to get peoples imaginations moving with it, to encourage everyone to be more hands on and be open to try and experiment with the different ideas that pop in your minds.

And yes Peter your are correct the world is very imbalanced but i feel a change in the air, the tables are turning. I am very lucky that I get to work from home, and be not only a housewife but also contribute financially to the home. I am a member of many large online community's of woman who do the same. And I try to spread the word in those community's as well, and encourage other woman to get more involved in the scientific field as well. In fact I have one friend who recently helped her husband create their own bio diesel in their basement. And it has been very successful for them.

But now I am rambling, and creating a novel. In short, again thank you for your kind kind words. I am doing what any good wife does, stand behind my husband in his efforts, and every once in awhile give him that extra push to take a chance. Sometimes in life we have to close our eyes and jump and have faith that we will land on our feet. Thats how we got started in this research by closing our eyes and just jumping in. And I am extremely proud of Imhotep and his work, he puts alot of time and effort into what he does and it shows Shiva
