This does explain the hours holding hands in a cirlce and shocking ourselves on the exposed power outlets in the high school debate practice rooms. It helped us win!

Interesting, although I'd like to see a more scientific study on it.

Remember the oxygen bar phase? I'm picturing kiosks in malls where people line up to stick electrodes to their heads... Oooh, I'd put them downtown in business centers, and advertise it as a way to get a leg up before a job interview or important presentation! Plus, if you really want to be a sparkling conversationalist at a cocktail party or on a first date...

I'm gonna make a fortune.

You could make the electrodes look like cute little cat ears. I mean, horns.

Actually, I'd make everything look as close to an iPod as I can. Clean, safe, and high-tech. Good subliminal associations.

It's probably not a good sign that the FIRST thing I thought was "ooh, this would really help in scrabble tournaments!"

Once I saw scrabble on ESPN 2.

Scrabble's not a sport [Wink]

Yeah, I was somewhere in those crowd scenes.

One day...

(And it's almost a sport; it's grueling, takes years of training and practice...)
