surgically implanting a small array of electrodes directly into your nervous system is not merely cosmetic
Well, that's true I guess. Perhaps we're just a bit more laid back about it all over here (and historically less litigious if it all goes horribly wrong
)
I suppose it's a different emphasis really - we get quite militantly worked up about eg: genetically modified foodstuffs while American society (there are individual exceptions of course,) doesn't seem to even notice, let alone question the wisdom of such tampering with nature.
But if some boffin wants to wire himself up to a computer - well, it's his neural functioning he's risking. And if his wife chooses to join him (presuming there's no coercion involved,) that's her choice.
Vive la difference/be afraid, be very afraid/delete where applicable.
Like I say, if I could find someone who'd offer the procedure affordably, I'd be the first in the queue
Honestly, Id eat organic food if it didnt cost so much.
Could always grow some yourself? Unless you live in a condo - I guess there's only so much you can harvest from window boxes
When you win the lottery, be sure to send me enough money for better food.
Will do

That would be an awkward conversation.
So where do you live?
Oh, just down the road in Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.
Excuse me?
Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.
You live in Japan!!??

Awkward perhaps, but not confusing. There are of course no Ls in Japanese. Incidentally, I believe Welsh is the only language in the world that permits 4 consecutive Ls - it sounds rather like someone choking on their tongue
And if they lived in Japan, they would, presumably, hail from mari-no kyokai shiro na hashibami-no ni tani hayai uzumaki soshite akai hora-ana-no chikaku-ni tisiryo-no kyokai Or somesuch.
(apologies to any native Japanese speakers for the patchy grammar - renshu-busoku de arimasu!)

When you grew up eating food covered in DDT, a little bioengineered food stuffs seems as wholesome as blood pudding. Honestly, Id eat organic food if it didnt cost so much. When you win the lottery, be sure to send me enough money for better food.

My grandmother (God Rest her soul) could plant a yard stick in the ground and it would sprout leaves.. I wish that could of been passed on to me. I cant even raise a cactus.
The only thing that i can get to grow is a bulb garden... guess not all is lost.
