Subject: More on member-down alert

Out of curiosity, I went out to the Web to see what I could find on
pulse monitors.  It occurred to me that Alcor, being a not-for-profit
company interested in medical issues, might even be able to get
information from one or more of these companies that we could use to
interface it to an alert system.

Anyhow, here's what I found -- I hope it's useful to someone:

http://www.campmor.com/watches/polar.pacer.html (chest belt transmits
signals to a watch; could we intercept them?)

http://www.shoptheplaza.com/clinic1/6.html (another cordless digital pulse
monitor)

http://www.shoptheplaza.com/clinic1/5.html (wristwatch pulsemeter)

http://crichter.com/HealthFX/monitor.htm (pulse monitor comes free with
treadmill -- could we buy it separately?)

to be like what we want)
