Ed is a civil engineer and the inventor of the Hurriquake nail. The nail, which took Ed over a decade to develop, is revolutionary - it gives a structure twice the resistance in high wind conditions and up to 50% more resistance in earthquake forces. Elliot had a chance to sit down with Ed recently to talk - not so much about the hurriquake nail - but about how Ed discovered and developed his life's work. I think his experience building the window boxes for his mom is central to who Ed became as an adult. Here's more of my interview with Ed Sutt.
