This freak anyone else out besides me?
ok, here's a link i found, i was going to save it till Thursday night, be it's freakin' me out, so here it is early.
http://people.deas.harvard.edu/~gsta...n_figure2.html
Basically, they opened a cat's head, and put in monitoring electrodes to the back of it's eyes (along the optic nerve), and used a computer to translate the signals, and tried to see how close they could get to the actual image. Figure "b" shows the actually image on top, and what the computer was able to translate the signals into. mind you, there weren't cameras, these are signals straight from the cat's eyes. (no gross pics or anything on the page). this is from 1999 (and on Harvard's website), so i wonder where they're at in develeopment now..... you know, there's been that stray cat in my neighborhood that keeps looking into my windows....

sometimes I get the urge to vent my carpet onto the fish that's responsible for killing that bug, but I'll have to let you know if I can find it.
It's been quite some time now....

There's actually a stray cat I see in my yard every once in a while. It was sitting by my back door one day just looking at me. Maybe somebody is watching. It still doesn't scare me though they can watch if they want.
