The state of commerce and technology in modern America is so intense, you might think there's nothing left to invent.
But the mother of invention is alive and well, and its progeny sometimes beat a path to the door of TeleBrands. The company, which backs products like the "pocket hose" and the "trusty cane," specializes in recruiting the inventors of new products and assisting with licensing and marketing.
The folks from Telebrands are in San Diego Thursday to host their annual "Telebrands Inventors Day" that invites people to show them their creations.
San Diegans Nanette Frank and Larry Moad are attending with hopes of landing a deal with the company. Frank will present an innovative bra liner, while Moad is set to show off his luggage handle invention.
