vpelt, assume that "diversion therapy" (rather than aversion therapy) did work in such cases, there are a number of other head up displays and virtual reality goggles already on the market (using non VRD technology), any reason that using VRD type system would be better? Unless, of course, the cost of such VRD systems would be drastically lower. Zeev

what is scary is the notion that such a system could be strapped onto an individual who has NO symptoms and is therefore forcefed visions a la Orwell's "1984" and its wall display videos that were predictions of today's interactive games, etc... Who would do such a thing? It takes no imagination to figure that out. Think of "The Manchurian Candidate", a cult film starring Frank Sinatra among others... Brrrrrrr! Dee Jay

OT - vpelt Your message reminded me of a piece of fiction I read about 25 years ago. In the future a young man was suffering from suicidal tendencies. He was able to treat himself by entering a very lifelike simulator of a racing car where he drove recklessly to the point of a horrendous crash - noise, physical movement and some pain were as real as could be manufactured. He then did it again, and again, and again, until he worked the depression out of his system. At the time no such device existed but today with the help of 3D Microvision VRD glasses it is a very real possibility. I can see the use of this device being limited only by ones imagination. Go MVIS.
