Apologies for the cross posting, but this is important.




All,

you might want to look at the article at: http://www.icdri.org/let_me_in.htm I think what the authors propose is quite interesting. It does I believe have quite a bit of applicability to the subject of this list. There are many things it could be used for.

Sincerely,

Mike Burks

I'm not sure I understand the article you reference Michael.

It starts by making the reasonable claim that "Neural Waves" could be used
for biometric identification. So far, so good. But then, without offering a
shred more argument or evidence, it suddenly leaps to the conclusion that
Neural Wave Analysis also has "the potential to shatter virtually all
disability barriers" by "acting as the hand". How so?

I'm a little suspicious too, after reading the statement "Due to the lost of
blood, the physical or biological characteristic (the head) would be useless
if stolen." Is this meant to be serious?

Mark

It's a bit hard to take the article seriously, too, considering the dozens
of mis-spellings, typographical errors, and grammatical mistakes.
