does anyone think there could be a revolution in this lifetime

there seems to be so much unhappiness among folk out there now, lots of people disillusioned with the ''system'' and want radical reform or change...some even wanting revolution.

but me, i am happy, i am alright jack, i do not want a revolution and i feel quite annoyed at the people calling for reform or change, because i don't want my security and happiness threatened...i think there should be some changes, and some areas reformed but not a total outright radical reform of the system to something new or unknown, i am against that.

any thoughts?

No. Not in Britain anyway.

This is a country that has had quite large upheavals over the centuries including the Dissolution and the Civil War, but generally avoids violent, destructive ones as likely to bring destruction as construction.

Reform yes, and that has happened from time to time but in relatively gentle steps. Not revolution.

@SpiritualMan That's always been the way. Manufacturers especially have always had to keep up-to-date and many have collapsed through not investing in developing their products and methods. Or did try but were wiped out by economic competition.

Those two tones you quote may be just mid-range musical semitones (Standard 'A' is 440Hz but my reference-book did not list those other pitches); and easy to create with very simple equipment; but I'm dubious about any supposed "healing" qualities.

Submitting anyone to such tones continually might send them up the wall after a while but won't do anything to a physical injury, infection or tumour. If they did the hospitals and health services would not be spending so much on medicines! The sounds might have some relaxing quality, perhaps, for a patient who is getting better anyway.

The claim about "free" energy from the air is just hot air, even omitting the equipment's capital cost, because it ignores the most basic of all the laws of physics. It's essentially a "modern" equivalent to the "perpetual motion machine" claim.

The air-source heat-pump extracts heat energy from the air but is by no means a new invention; and despite an apparent nett energy gain by emitting a lot of heat at modest temperature, it still needs a motor, usually electric, to drive it. In a domestic setting it also needs an auxiliary electric heater to raise the water it warms to a suitable temperature for the hot-water taps and shower: a solar panel is better for that.

The nearest to "free" air energy is that taken by a wind-turbine but though the wind is free, the system is not truly "free", nor is it anything novel. Just relatively low-cost - and non-polluting - to run.

I think most countries could do a lot worse if they just cut the baby boomers loose from political office.

These people are now in or approaching their 80's and want to ensure nothing changes.
Same old economic decisions leading to the same old political & economic messes that benefit nobody but themselves.
