MY HERO!
The person I chose is Michael W. Pritchard. He is the inventor and CEO of The Lifesaver Bottle. The Lifesaver Bottle is a water bottle that completely purifies water without using harsh chemicals. It can be used with lake water, water you find in a ditch, anything along those lines. He also invented FAILSAFE technology. In simple terms this means that when the cartridge has expired it shuts off, preventing the user from drinking contaminated water. Just change the cartridge and continue to use. It has help hundreds in countries like Africa, where purified water isn't always available. He also invented a version of The Livesaver Bottle for soldiers who are out in war! He has done something truly amazing, take a look for yourself! At his website www.lifesaversystems.com you can read all about Michaels' work and about how exactly the Failsafe technology works. You can also find a diagram of the bottle itself!

The food actually tasted fresher than in the past and was easy to keep fueled.Dad was very proud of the solar hybrid…See More

Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More

The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
