I was watching the news while eating breakfast, and switching between Fox and CNN. On both were stories about the implantation of sensors inside a disabled person's skull, to possibly allow a computer to communicate with that person. I was kinda rushed, so I didn't get too much of the story, but both shows had a closeup of the computer screen in the same room with doctors, bunches of equipment, and putative patient. There was Chuckie the daemon looking back at me, on both, 5 minutes apart. ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include any kind of voice or data chuckr@glue.umd.edu | communications topic, C programming, and Unix. 213 Lakeside Drive Apt T-1 | Greenbelt, MD 20770 | I run Journey2 and picnic (FreeBSD-current) (301) 220-2114 | and jaunt (NetBSD). ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
