I'm afraid I missed that one =O!

Yeah, scientists can now control basic nanites. They managed to put one in a fly/bug and control the bug with a radio-transmitter. Was interesting. ATOM/SCIENCE shows on BBC4 are rather good.

Like, they can cure manic depression now too. They stick things in your brain, program it so your mood changes instantly (that was scary, watching a woman burst into tears instantly, then 5 seconds later be smiling like mad) so they can set a "feel good" level for life, so you can get naturally upset, but the neurons won't let it fire to the depression stage. Cool, eh?

Did you play MGS4? Emotional control? Such a thing shouldn't be invented tbh. Cures for disorders fine but never to control a self being of someone.

hell yeah. screw emotional manipulation, next theyll be adding stuff to the water to keep us all pliant.

Like that crazy bastard in the thing about the history of surgery last night. Came up with lobotomies as a good way of curing people, and was quite please with a 33% fix, 33% stay the same, 33% turned into cabbages/dead ratio.....

Scientists are scary.
