Yeah, I read this and the first thing I thought was Hillary salivating at the thought of having all conservatives implanted with a mind-reading chip.

He can blink and hear, he could have given permission. Just ask him, “You want to be wired up to a computer so we can try to find a way to hear your thoughts, blink 5 times quickly for yes”
and I bet he was so quick you couldn’t believe, he was a normal smart speaking human for 19 years, now at 27 trapped in a useless body with no way to communicate.

I would give doctor’s permission to try something like this on my daughter as long as it didn’t cause her any brain damage.

My 11 year old daughter has speech problems due to brain damage. Lots of the time she knows what she wants to say, but she can’t “find” the word to say it. She gets really frustrated. Also, her articulation is not very clear, so it is still hard to understand her.

My daughter is smart, so it is very frustrating not to be an effective communicator.
