I see your point, but I think LCD has been used for Liquid Crystal Display by so many now that it's LCD for short.
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_crystal_display for example.

And who says how many segments there are - let's say for LCD displays or cars?
Price fixing is stupid.

So if I want less quality because I cannot afford the quality - I'm SOL?
And if the price is fixed, how do I innovate? Or rather, why should I?

Norfolk Police Officers To Be Tagged To Improve Response Times 150
Police in Norfolk, England already have tracking units, The Automatic Vehicle Location System, installed in their cars that allow a control room to track their exact locations. Later this year a similar system will be attached to individual police radios to allow controllers to monitor the position of every frontline officer. Combined with equipment that can pinpoint the locations of 999 callers, the system will allow the force to home in on "shouts" to within yards. The system also lets operators filter a map showing the location of its vehicles and constables to reveal only those with the skills needed for a specific incident, like the closest officer with silver bullets during a werewolf attack.

Having too many meetings has nothing to do with technology.
As parent said, it's more efficient to send all the participants the same email who then only have to click 1 button - and if they do want to say anything besides accept/decline, they still can! That way you get a nice list where you can see all the answers, versus 20 mails where you have to read first if it's a yes or a no.
And: It's not a requirement that you actually respond, in that respect there is no difference to regular email of course.
I'm not sure why I'm writing this, it's so obvious, I think you're trolling.

Something like this could the trick, I think. Can be remote controlled, what about a company that installs and maintains those guns and also takes care of the firing? :)
