Remote Control People

http://apnews.excite.com/article/20051026/D8DFD7O01.html

Okay, this is a little disturbing. The Japanese have created a headset that can direct where a person walks from a joystick used by another person. It throws little currents into your ear, and throws you off balance to make you move in the right direction.

As soon as they make one that controls what your speech, Bush won't have to read the teleprompter anymore.

I refuse to put a headset on for any reason from this day forward. How do you find these crazy articles? I did think, though, this technology might help people who have trouble keeping their balance..if used for good it would be nice...

No, no games Weniggluckliches. This is real life. There are even pictures with the article.

MB, I thought it would be helpful in getting people upstairs after feeding them ruffies. That fireman's carry always looks suspicious.

Oooh creepy! There's a good market for that one in mistrustful spouses. Could easily be abused, tho.

My verification word is; curnlbru

...funny!

MB i didn't think about that. Then that's not so bad.

But Sylow wouldn't it look suspicious when the ruffied individual is walking with their eyes closed? Better invent an invisible "eye-suspender".
