Abstract: Optical viewing system for producing a simulated three dimensional image. The system includes electronic equipment for displaying an image on a first electronic display device. Additional electronic equipment is provided for displaying an image on at least one second display device. The at least one second electronic display device is a substantially transparent display device, whereby an observer can view through transparent areas of the second electronic display device. The first and second electronic display devices are located at different, predetermined locations along an optical viewing path such that the image displayed by the first electronic display device is projected through the second electronic display device. The first electronic display device includes an image projector and the second electronic display device includes a controllable pixel display spaced therefrom.

Abstract: A hollow tubular mouthpiece that is clampable between the front teeth of a patient that is to receive a medical instrument through the mouth and into the esophagus. The mouthpiece has two spaced flanges to fit over the outside of the lips on the proximal end of the mouthpiece and behind the front teeth on the distal end of the mouthpiece with the intermediate space to be clamped between the biting front teeth. A central hollow passageway permits the instrument to be inserted. A lower curved tongue plate extends inwardly and downwardly to depress the patients tongue and to guide the forward end of the instrument.

Abstract: A remediation method for decontamination of soil and groundwater that puts maximum remediation stress on the entire area and volume of contamination. This results in site restoration in days and weeks. The target contaminants are organic compounds such as hydrocarbon constituents associated with diesel fuel, gasoline, kerosene, solvents and creosote. Cleanup concentrations to non-detectable levels can be achieved when properly implemented. Positive pressure is used to push an uncontaminated gas throughout the entire contaminated area/volume. When contacting the contaminated area, volume and media, this gas becomes a carrier gas, stripping the contaminants and carrying them to ground level where they can be collected and treated or dissipated to the atmosphere. The method incorporates air entry points (vertical, horizontal, or directional) installed to a depth below the contamination, combined with a predetermined air entry point spacing (depth/spacing ratio).
