For fifty bucks, you bet i'm an expert - or will be one really quick!
(answer: no, none of that's possible, sorry mate. cheers, though. hope it works out. say hi to the cia for me)

Remarkably organized delusional system. As you say, very sad. You don't usually see this degree of coherence, preserved logic, and organization with schizophrenia. It's possible, though. Very sad.

I'm sure it's a joke. I don't buy that someone really wants to ask those questions. Someone just got bored (or possibly drunk with mates) and decided to see if there are any REAL crack pots out there. ;)

I'm doing a study at usf in which case they are taking me off of "ONE" not sure which of my meds to study the withdraw symptoms. Every time I have gone off my meds to test for myself If I have "some sort of gift" vs some delususinal problem I have ended either in the hopital or jail.. so none the less I have learned my lesson the hard way... however there are times when I can see "this persons" concerns come to light. For instance I had a "vision" once where I heard "Barck Obama" say to me "The Children" and then on the left side of my forhead I heard and felt what seemed to be a "check out counter" BLEEP. It's a fun yet scarry illness..

that's the kind of thing I'd like to hear more about JBK. fun illness? fun/funny in retrospect? or while it's going on?

Yeah, I'm wondering about the ethics and safety of that research.

Craigslist has "gigs" of type "computer"?! That is completely awesome! Thanks Undertoad!

What are the odds the ad was posted by a CIA front organisation as a means of identifying - prior to eliminating - every one in the country with knowledge of the new brain-chipping plan, or the knowledge to speak out about it?

... 'cause, like, you know, the is a secret government agency whose job is to create ridiculous conspiracy theories so that when people hear the true conspiracy facts they dismiss them as paranoia.

Have you any idea how hard it is to hang wine-corks from a tinfoil hat?

They're actually trying to identify Aussies who're wise to their new scheme ... :runaway:

for posterity's sake i'm gonna quote the post here so it doesnt disappear when craigslist takes the post down...

I am looking for someone who is an expert on brain/computer interface chips and micro-electrodes. Must have a background in neuroscience and be aware of the latest cutting edge research and applications of these devices. I am asking to spend one hour with you for coffee while I ask you a number of questions about this field. You should know things like:

Where in the body would these have to be placed in order to have full control over a human and all their neurons and vision and hearing?
Could there be some way they can evade detection from a CT scan or MRI? If so, how?
What type of surgical procedure would be required to put these into a person's body or take them out? Is it something that can be done through the nose or ears with minimal invasive incisions?
Could a set of electrodes placed to connect with the aural nerve discern content of a person's thought by "hearing" the short phrases we say to ourselves in our inner dialogue?
How far advanced is the CIA's use of this technology likely to be given the applications of these devices that are not covert and known publicly?

I will ask you these questions along with a number of other questions in a one hour chat over coffee. I will pay you $50 for the hour.

It would help also if you can read a brain MRI film, or know somebody who can.

Must be able to think creatively and extrapolate what is known about how these devices can work, to what their capabilities might be in 5 years (or 5 years worth of advanced behind the scenes closed-door research.)

Please briefly answer parts of the above questions to demonstrate your knowledge of these devices before we meet.

Isn't Jeffery Dahmer dead?
