this is absolute genius

We were watching a show on CNBC called "One Nation, Overweight" tonight, and saw this. Doctor Levine from the Mayo Clinic was saying that humans are built to move, and the sedentary lifestyle created by most office jobs is literally killing us.

No kidding.

So, in an effort to combat the ill effects of sitting at a desk and pecking at a keyboard all day, he designed this simple, yet brilliant contraption.

It's a treadmill workstation, and is basically a desk over a treadmill. Several major companies, including Glaxo Smith Klein and Best Buy are trying them out already. Even walking slowing burns a ton of calories.

Bravo, Doctor Levine!
