Some day, we may be emailing without a computer! Some ground-breaking news on this has already been achieved. This will still necessitate Netiquette and I can only wonder what new rules might be required! | |

Researchers have
managed to send thoughts over the Internet, using a direct brain-to-brain
connection and a big magnet.
It's not very
efficient — the volunteers could only send "yes" or "no"
answers to one another. But using EEG (electroencephalographs) to read brain
signals, and a big magnet on the other end to transmit it, their players got
the correct answer 72 percent of the time.
"This is the most
complex brain-to-brain experiment, I think, that's been done to date in
humans," said Andrea Stocco, an assistant professor of psychology at the
University of Washington.
"They have to
interpret something they're seeing with their brains," added Stocco's
colleague Chantel Prat, associate professor of psychology. "It's not
something they've ever seen before."
"THIS IS THE MOST
COMPLEX BRAIN-TO-BRAIN EXPERIMENT, I THINK, THAT'S BEEN DONE TO DATE IN
HUMANS."
The volunteers played
a version of the "20 questions" game. One person looked at a word on
a screen — in one test it was the name of an animal — and the other, sitting in
a lab a mile away, had three chances to guess what the animal was. To make it
simple, the questions were pre-arranged: "Can it fly?", "Is it a
mammal?" and "Is it a pet?"
There were eight
possible answers: shark, turtle, bear, dog, vulture, parakeet, bat and sugar
glider. That last one was added to make the experiment more entertaining,
Stocco said.
The volunteer in the
know, called the respondent, could look at either a "yes" or
"no" flashing light on a computer screen. Her thought patterns were
recorded as EEG activity and transmitted over the internet to a transcranial
magnetic stimulation (TMS) device attached to the back of the head of the
"questioner".

Washington postdoctoral student Caitlin Hudac, the “inquirer,” wears a cap that
uses transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMG) to deliver brain signals from the
other participant, the “respondent.” University of

The questioner sent one of
the three questions to the respondent via computer, the respondent looked at
the "yes" or "no" light, and that signal went back to the
TMS machine. A "yes" answer |
