Keith Cochrane came over to talk to me personally about the fact that I had gone to so much trouble to try to participate in the Uber PitchTo promotion, due to my not knowing that it was like finding a needle in haystack…
My wait time to speak to an attendant for help was reasonable & I enjoyed the efficiency of the iPad sign in process, with the electronic board with our names up on the wall-which hinders impatience with the process…
The couch where I sat was clean & quite comfortable for myself to sit quietly & read while intermittently pressing the request Uber Pitch car for a while…
I enjoyed talking to the other go gettters who arrived after me…
Tom, another inventor, gave me a lift back to my place, & I ended up taking him out to lunch to chat further about our projects & as a thank you for the free ride…
Dan & Allen let us both try their Virtual Reality eyewear & I enjoyed seeing a slice of the Cirque du Soleil in 3d…
All in all an excellent experience…
I did not get an Uber Pitch car, nor did Tom, or Dan & Allen…
However I got to meet some of the Uber employees at head office Toronto, I made a new friend & possible business associate, & I learned about a new technology…
Far more important than pitching an idea to a world weary person who is probably tired of hearing money asks & yearns to just go home…
My idea can be found on my website at grovecanada.ca & my books can be read for free there too…
If anyone is curious…
Look for the book DIY Cancer Repair Manual for details on the idea…
(Biography chatter:from my Author Central page on Amazon-Grove Health Science is a series of 12 books now!)
Hi...I'm Sari Grove...Sari sounds like Mary...Grove is the last name I took from my husband, 'cause it is a really nice name, & he was very very good looking, & I married him, & my maiden name, the name I grew up with, was "Slatt", which could be turned into all sorts of unfortunate words, which is why when I was looking for a mate, I sought someone with a cool last name...(I cannot tell you how many totally worthy men I had to ignore due to their last names being unmelodic or otherwise unsuitable...)
Grove Canada is a pen name, mostly because when I needed a web address, I could not get Grove.com or even grove.ca, so I just got GroveCanada, due to a serious lack of imagination in that moment...It stuck, so I still use it...I thought this time, if I used Grove Canada as a pen name, that maybe you might look up my blog online, at GroveCanada.ca, & enjoy the freshness of getting information from the horse's mouth, up to the minute, rather than the instant obsoleteness that a book creates...Like a car depreciates as soon as you buy it-a book is old as soon as it is published...For a Virgo perfectionist, this inability to easily update, with a new chapter, with new research, causes me constant worrisome self-abnegating, consternation...
I use those dot dot dot things, the etcetera symbol, at the end of my sentences, as a habit-you will always know it is me writing, you will always pause at the end of a sentence to think for a moment, you will remember that poetry is beautiful, & you will take everything I say with a giant grain of Pink Himalayan salt(since the grammatical error will irk you into that state of skepticism)!
Love & Hugs, Sari
ps. I became a Christian at the age of 21, which may seem like a non sequitur, & though my faith is decent my works may not really do justice to that title-but I thought I'd mention it, since my first name Sari always seems to force an assumption about my background-and though you would be right to assume that it tends to be a Jewish name, you might not be right in assuming that that is what I am going to sound like when I expound on some of my karmic principles or other ethical compasses I have developed...Not that I have done away with my past, it is just I have iced the cake with the new updated version-so if you wrong me, I may just turn the other cheek(New), instead of doing the eye for an eye thing back at you!(old)...
