Crichton was right!

Via Gizmodo, a report about a new skull-implant that uses electrical stimuli to short-circuit seizures.

In 1972, Michael Crichton wrote a book called The Terminal Man about a guy who gets implanted in his head a device that uses electrical stimuli to short-circuit seizures.

In other news, who wants to go to that new dinosaur theme park with me?

    Dinosaur theme park?!? Where? I might want to go! (We should also invite the Granades, though they’d better keep close tabs on Eli lest he get confused for one of their number.)
