I spend a lot of time in a support group for friends and
family of sexual abuse survivors. Something that is really
interesting is that almost nobody can see their own mirror,
in other words, they cannot see their own situations (and
especially their own behavior) objectively. So what I do,
all the time (in this group), is show them my mirror,
through sharing my personal story. Then people in that
group begin to start to 'see clearly' the truth about their
own situations. The mirror is powerful. And biofeedback is
a similar mirror ;-)

Sounds good. We non-hardware oriented folks are waiting
for someone to say they have a working design that they
have built, so we can proceed and build our own. I still
think that a group order of PCB boards is a way to get
this project moving faster. I applaud Jim-P for diving
in and writing software, but I share the same belief
that we need real working hardware to build software.

No I hadn't seen that before, and yes it's right up my
alley. After I get OpenEEG working with my x86 boards,
I want to move to StrongArm, because it is very lean
on power consumption. 2 watts vs 10 watts. It would
be kinda neat to monitor biofeedback on the move, just
to see what happens for example someone runs a red
light and your heart nearly jumps out of your chest <g>.

Namaste,
Doug
