Aloha Clifford, Please hurry and invent such a cleaning system. I am way tired of gutter cleaning. Everytime I consider buying a gutter system such as a brush like thing that is supposed to let the water flow through it and the leaves sit on the top and eventually blow away, or some sort of covers, I hear so much about whether or not they work, that I haven't done anything about it.
