There is a novel device to come to your kitchen counter: the "Unboil-the-Egg" machine.
What, you think you need that like a hole in your head? Even with the knowledge that "Professor Colin Raston from Adelaide's Flinders University invented the vortex fluidic device (VFD) after a[n] eureka moment on a trans-Pacific flight?"
I surmise that everyone needs at least one of those things, whatever they are. The good professor explains it in more detail: "the VFD can slice carbon nanotubes into precise length, when combined with water, a solvent and lasers"--no doubt, a revolutionary invention.
