Abstract: A live natural gas system of instruments installed and capable of monitoring and collecting data from locations in a natural gas distribution system without the need to disrupt the flow of natural gas, including a plurality of instruments disposed at locations about a natural gas distribution pipe system, each capable of monitoring one or more of pressure, flow, temperature, humidity and vibration, each including a fluid dynamic sensor such as a pitot tube, capable of being positioned within gas flow within a distribution pipe; communication means for transmitting data collected to a remote location by means of a cellular system; a graphic user interface on which the collected data is displayed with geography information that gives a user the location of the instruments monitoring and collecting data; the instruments capable of being installed in gas-carrying pipes without the need to stop the flow of gas therewithin.

Abstract: A programmable microprocessor-controlled cassette recorder/player plays messages in accordance with the programming of the microprocessor, to a client. The client either actuates the recorder/player on his or her own, or when prompted to do so by the microprocessor. The messages have a behavior-modifying thrust, and may be in the voice of the client's therapist.
