"I saw it begin,” said the Lord Digory. “I did not think I would live to see it die"

Oh goodness, there would be chaos if my tangled thought-processes and about-turns travelled directly from brain to web-page. At least the process of typing and deliberately posting imposes some order? Well I hope it does!

LOl well amongst some of us ;)

I'll have to ask him to explain it a bit better .. I didn't entirely get what he was suggesting. He seems to think that in the future human beings will become something that we these days would not recognise as human but I don't know how or why. I'll ask him.

i'll ask him cos I am afraid my understanding of what he said was fairly limited :). It actually ties in with something that I can recall seeing on a Panorama documentary once about the blurring between human brains and computers which is expected to one day happen but I am not going to attempt to explain it in any more detail cos I don't really understand it.

I certainly didn't mean to put any pressure on for an answer, Jo - it was just an expression of interest!

I think I remember seeing or reading something about brain-implant computer chips for connection to email, internet etc as well, although I don't remember the first thing about it in detail.
