    That's been in the building stages forever, I really hope they can get it fully functional.

    I hate how the term evolution is being used in terms of computers, you cant manipulate DNA or introduce man-made biologically-based technology in to an animal and pass it off as evolution. Blah.

    It would be nerd heaven for sure though, dont you think? By nerds, I mean people who are happier on their computer integration than in society. the biggest problem is the same that's happening with computers and the internet today. Morality will advance and change, but rape, murder, pedophilia and so on will always be in the top tier of worries concerning any technology that integrates us further in to a collective. Japan, the entire country, just recently banned 'rape simulation' games and hey, it only took them 30 years to do something about them. It's already recorded in libraries where 'questionable' books are removed completely. And the 'questionable' in question can be anything deemed to be of and/or related to any subject deemed inappropriate which could even coincide with religious or political beliefs. And that leads to the other side of the spectrum: Extremists who leisurely and purposefully seek out the questionable and create an underground as entertainment.

    The underground of the internet is a scary, scary (incredibly funny) place. That, on a scale of direct interaction to the human brain, even manipulating brainwaves, is going to impact everything so fast it will be ridiculous. Once the open market can get its hands on it, and is somehow made in to porn... it's all over. The tech will aid us in everything, streamlining our lives. But we'll all hide in secret, downloading the memories of a hot lesbian masturbating when she was 16 with her math teacher during a ski trip. Or 'reading' the recorded data of what it feels like to have you legs removed by a saw, or even tricking our brains to recall the memory of someone else being high on a particular drug. Can 'waking' dreams be illegal?

    Getting back to our lifetime, I cant wait for the first experimental man-made brains or brain pieces. But with our current state, we dont even know how the more complicated brain works, hell we dont even know what exactly it is we're sending and receiving across all those neurons. There's a wall to climb.
