From what I've heard the early versions of "Pay for thought devices" will be electromagnetically hardwired to the Brain stem. And anytime a thought crosses your mind it will automatically send a signal to the mother company and instantly be charged to your credit card. I think they are already starting to install these on small school children as control test subjects, because the children of today are more media saavy than old folks. Next they're going to start charging for the images that your eyes process. "Pay to look" technology will be the wave of the future. Oh Boy are we in for a scary world. Hey all of this kind of reminds me of a cross between THX1138 and smoe bad B-Movie. kaom
