I've always wanted to design a computer monitor that has a big hand that will stick out and slap trolls and spammers across the face when they send their nefarious troll posts/spam. Guess I should have copyrighted that idea ;)

"If successful, it could allow people to touch and feel each other over the Internet. "I think we can see where this is going.
To: Nachum
Yes, but how can market this with porn?
To: Nachum
This will add a whole new dimension to the obscene phone call.

I think we can see where this is going. Oh, absolutely. I have little doubt one of the scientists will "accidentally" leave his device in his pants pocket.

Am I the only one to figure that porn spam would take on a new dimension with this? [cringe]

If successful, it could allow people to touch and feel each other over the Internet.

To: Texaggie79
Ok - something is wrong - a post like this and you're nowhere around??
Ok, tell the truth - how much have you got invested in this??
To: Nachum
You can not only feel the resulting force, but you can also get a sense of the quality of the object you're feeling -- whether it's soft or hard, wood-like or fleshy Screw these handjob thingys, bring on the holodeck.
To: Nachum
Step 1 - FeelyNet.
Step 2 - Orgasmitron.
What a strange world this has become!
To: PJ-Comix
Speaking of Petra Verkaik,,,,,,,
you are not alone PJ!
To: DakotaGator
Step 2 - Orgasmitron. What a strange world this has become!
Actually we've already seen Step 2 in a movie---Sleeper. Remember?
