  Brain cells coupled with silicon circuitsheh..subject says it all.
http://www.livescience.com/humanbiology ... chips.html Seems mildly terminatoresque. They were basically able to "glue" neurons onto a microchip using some sort of protein, and then pass electric signals back and forth between the two. Other than the Frankenstein factor, this is pretty damned cool. I'd love to be able to hook my brain up to a computer, assuming a few things: 1. The computer has no outside contact at all (no hacking) or 2. The computer is hooked up in such a way that it would only be accessible by actively wanting to be accessed and acts more like extended memory or something. The idea of someone hacking my brain and turning me into a zombie isn't too appealing. _________________ They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. |

Agree, it must not be networked with ANYTHING whatsoever.

I'll be cool as long as they test it on Satis first.

They would need special instrumentation to strap the neural sensors around the dick on his head.

You would be surprised how handy it can be to have a penis as a head. The women all love me.

I'm not sure I want to couple Satis' twisted mind to a powerful pc.  _________________ "I find a Burger Tank in this place? I'm-a be a one-man cheeseburger apocalypse." - Coach |
