lol...good point. This would be very interesting if it actually would work. I think it would totally ruin our economy though because no one would work at the workplace. They could be sitting in their office or cubicle looking at porn and no one would know
"If there were no eternal consciousness in a man, if at the bottom of everything there were only a wild ferment, a power that twisting in dark passions produced everything great or inconsequential; if an unfathomable insatiable emptiness lay hid beneath everything, what would life be but despair?"

Sorry if I sound cynical but something like this would probably make people unSociable and could force people to become couch patatoes and well there goes all those efforts to control the weight would go out the window. Having irreversable effects on the world economy at large.

There maybe ways to get this technology in without doing too much damage to everyone though. On another note it would be cool to surf the net without having to use a keyboard and mouse.

LoL, seems like I am the only one that didn't read too much into this, I was thinking about playing Age of Mythology, and taking command of my mouse, not literally scanning my server for email, LOL...This is awesome research done, and a great step for people with disabilities...
