I figured we needed some place to put in the interesting news bits we find. I'm in awe about this one: artificial sight research succeeding. Wow.

That story about that Dutch woman who claims to be allergic for Pentium chips? It is all true. See the offical court sentence here [only in Dutch].

That is a very cool article. The whole off to surgery in Lisbon etc. makes me nervous, but I'm one of those cautious academic types. Just in case more ganglion cells die on my retina I'm hoping the artificial retina work progresses well. (I have a lesion no one knows the cause of that gives me a weird blind spot - it has mostly healed, as my brain has found a way to fill it in largely, but I don't have good motion sight in one area.)
