This device is shaped like a chair with attached slippers. The user places their feet into the slippers, and sits on the chair. Their weight powers a mechanism that uses cams to wriggle their toes individually up and down in order like a mexican wave. When they have reached the bottom of the mechanism's
vertical travel, the wriggling stops.

This technology must only be used for good. |

If I wiggle my toes, can it repressurize my broken, sinking office chair? |
|
| |
So like you're "drumming" your fingers impatiently only with your toes? |
|
| |
I'm afraid this can only end in calamity. |
|
| |
This would be very useful for..well, it would just be
very useful. |
|
| |
This makes me wonder how people have had their toes wiggled in the past |

Gosh, thanks; I never know what to get Aunt
Phoebe for Christmas, but this year's a cinch. |

Include an optional scalp massager attachmeny and I'll buy two! |
|
| |
Does it come in an extra tall version with a step ladder? For long
toe-wiggling sessions? |
|
| |
The mechanisms should be cross-coupled between
different chairs. |
|
| |
It should also be made possible to raise your cow
orker's chair by
active toe-wiggling. |

Last night, I had a dream about banjos. |
|

Well you're from Maine, right? |

[MB] Some sort of IP standard for networked
toe-wiggling/chair elevation messages is needed |

Yes, I am, but the banjo is not our traditional yokel
instrument (that would be a toss-up between the fiddle
and the Moose-Harp). I was simply bringing it up because it
seemed
oddly relevant to this discussion. |
|
| |
I have to say that I actually have heard of a man with only one arm, who rigged up a device to allow him to strum his banjo with his foot. |
