Not poking fun and the intent of the work these folks are doing. If it helps anyone, today or in the future afflicted with autism, God bless them for their work.

See my 9 JUST before your post :)

Well then; all they need is significantly more gov’t funding, even a brain in dish can figure that one out.

I missed it when I posted. I didn’t think of Abby Normal. That was a great movie.

I have to say for some reason I remembered how the girl in the bikini looked more than the brains from the Star Trek episode. Glad you posted. I haven’t figured out how to post pictures.

I hope somebody (or something) from the distant future arrives in time to edit this kind of thing out of existence. That, the Obamas and the Clintons.

Artificial 'brain in a dish'

Sounds like Paris Hilton back in her younger days.

It's too late. We are already brains in vats.

How do I know this?

Every once and I while when the alien scientists tending our brains are off in meetings I'll start acting all nonchalant whistling a simple tune and then really quickly I'll look out the left side of my eyes and see the electronic cables hooked up to my cerebrum.

The episode was the The Gamesters of Triskelion

There is a FR HTML Sandbox that walks you through how to post pictures and other fun stuff: Here

Have fun!

Green was always reserved for only the hottest space chicks on Star Trek TOS. Wonder why?

Actually Kirk never did get it on with a green chick. That was Captain Robert April.

Green was then unusual, thus “alien.”

[freedumb2003]

Correction.

The green alien girl was with Christopher Pike. It was Vina in an illusion generated by the Talosians to make her attractive enough to breed with (not a huge problem for Susan Oliver in 1965).

The heck with Alzheimer’s, let’s shed light on how to fix liberalism...oh, wait, I think they need brains.

That reminds me...there was a place in St. Louis where you could get fried brain sandwiches.

...Scientists have grown the first working ‘mini-brains’ in a dish ... They will all vote Democrat.

The article says brains, not sphincters!
