Apparently the majority of you didn't read what it says in the article - IT DOESN'T READ YOUR THOUGHTS AS YOU THINK THEM!  It only translates thoughts specifically aimed at spoken sentences, which wouldn't do a bit of good regarding politicians, OR come anywhere close to being the ultimate "thought police" device.  It woould DEFINITELY be a boon to vocally handicapped folks, though.  It's a tool - everything depends on what you use it for. You can kill somebody with a shovel - do you want to ban those too?  Sheesh! ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rich]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 16th 2008 3:47PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Audeo Neckband Translates Your Thoughts Into Speech]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/03/13/audeo-neckband-translates-your-thoughts-into-speech/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/03/13/audeo-neckband-translates-your-thoughts-into-speech/</guid><description><![CDATA[yes but when you outlaw shovels only outlaws will have shovels]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[jim hardie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 16th 2008 4:23PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Audeo Neckband Translates Your Thoughts Into Speech]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/03/13/audeo-neckband-translates-your-thoughts-into-speech/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/03/13/audeo-neckband-translates-your-thoughts-into-speech/</guid><description><![CDATA[Margaret, I love your sense of humor!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[slanny]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 16th 2008 4:58PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Audeo Neckband Translates Your Thoughts Into Speech]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/03/13/audeo-neckband-translates-your-thoughts-into-speech/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/03/13/audeo-neckband-translates-your-thoughts-into-speech/</guid><description><![CDATA[Finally!!

This is a sure sign of the end times. This is one of the devices that the anti-christ will use to control and manipulate world. Everyone, please read your bible, specifically in the book of Matthew when Jesus talked about the signs that we will see before he returns on earth. Search online about the end times to read more on the subject. It's loud and clear people. It just might save your soul. Read and receive the Lord as your saviour. Repent and walk in righteousness before its too late. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Lala]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 16th 2008 5:27PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Audeo Neckband Translates Your Thoughts Into Speech]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/03/13/audeo-neckband-translates-your-thoughts-into-speech/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/03/13/audeo-neckband-translates-your-thoughts-into-speech/</guid><description><![CDATA[And for my NEXT trick...

I am very grateful for these "tools" and "gadgets" that just 10, 20 years ago were being touted as "a sign of the end of times".  Get real.  I believe in God and I believe in miracles.  Why do people make these things out to be evil.  God created man with an intelligence.  If he didn't want us to learn, grow and adapt then he wouldn't have issued us a brain.  These "tool's" allow an indvidual just a little more control and power over their lives and day to day living.  I suggest you actually see how peoples lives are affected and how much it means to them before you condem it.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Michelle Coffey-Roberts]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 16th 2008 6:39PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Audeo Neckband Translates Your Thoughts Into Speech]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/03/13/audeo-neckband-translates-your-thoughts-into-speech/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/03/13/audeo-neckband-translates-your-thoughts-into-speech/</guid><description><![CDATA[My husband is a stroke patient who has aphasia, he has lost the ability to speak.
