I guess you haven't been following the stories about "IT" - someone came up
with a "secret invention" which supposedly will change the world. Most
reports have it being a motorized scooter. But in most of the news stories
that talk about "IT", they mention that the inventor, Dean Kamen, previously
had invented a wheelchair that can walk up stairs. Here is a link,
exclusively about the wheelchair:
