My brain has turned to mush after listening to the host of some PBS show masturbate to wine for the whole afternoon. Just becasue it’s in HD is no longer an excuse for me to watch. Ugh. But it did get me thinking about an idea I had a while ago. The idea? The “Wine Fogger”.
It’s simple really. You place an active untrasonic transducer (like the one’s found in novelty fog machines) in the wine glass and it creates a wine fog. The idea is to aid connoisseurs with acquiring a wine’s nose, or smell. With the Wine Fogger you can really make sure that you are _really_ getting a good whiff. The Wine Fogger would also aid casual drinkers to really get the most out of their wine drinking experience.
