With one of these I could still be married...

[Iron head mike]

I was thinking the same thing.

I say blast off and nuke the whole site from orbit.
It’s the only way to be sure.

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

Ah so, I’ll take a dozen. Then I can use it to

it cannot stop people making meaningless sounds, such as "ahhh," that are uttered over a long time period.

Great, an anti Obama ray they does everything but stop him from using the most common words in his vocabulary.

They found that the device works better on people who were reading aloud than engaged in “spontaneous speech” and it cannot stop people making meaningless sounds, such as “ahhh,” that are uttered over a long time period./

President obam: I have authorized....ahhh...uhhh

President obama: Sory, The last adnibistr...uh...uh...ahh

Great, an anti Obama ray they does everything but stop him from using the most common words in his vocabulary.

Those being, "Let me be clear," "I" and "fairness."

[bigbob]

This should be the product of the century!

Wonder if it could be built-into every cellphone and remotely activated?

[ScottinVA]

I’d like to try it out on Sheila Jackson Lee. That’ll tell us if it REALLY works.

[ejonesie22]

I am still married but this would make it much more pleasant

"There are still many cases in which the negative aspects of speech become a barrier to the peaceful resolution of conflicts,"

Won't be long before these start showing up at town hall meetings in the hands of the speaker's security teams.

[Vaquero]

I bet zer0 regime buys up all of them.

[New Perspective]

That's no big deal, I have had one for years.

I would have loved that for those school meetings where there is always that one parent that loves to hear themselves talk.......another reason to home school....

Won’t work on a lot of people. Often, when the piehole flaps the ears shut down. Also, unless there’s a delayed reflection of the teleprompter, the bamster will flap away ad nausium.

I ought to know. I've worked for them for the last 24 years. This is the country which figured out how to reverse engineer poop into food. Seriously!

[Lazamataz]

Research paper on same.

This would be good to control riots or in the ghetto’s. The Occupy crowds would hate this.....that’s a good thing.
