Maybe something based on the Discovery Channel series, "Dirty Jobs"? Something tells me that Chris could have loads of fun with that.

A couple of problems your going to encounter in your quest are (1) so many stories have been written, that almost anything truly unique has already been done or at least attempted (if not here, then on ff.net or someplace else); and (2) people who have uncommon ideas will generally want to use them in their own stories.

I thought of a couple of things that, as far as I know, nobody here has done before (I can't say so with certainty, because I've read so few competition stories), but I couldn't tell anyone about them because I wanted to use them in LTDI. Those who have read the prologue have seen one of these innovations, and the other will become apparent quickly enough when LTDI officially launches.
