- jerf 11y agoI imagine there are a lot of very entertaining failure cases, or, at least, entertaining failure cases as long as they aren't really happening to someone. Heh, perhaps that's the proper angle for the story... macabre comedy. Think Doc Brown meeting Marty McFly in the past for the first time (http://eol_images/Entire_Site/2012220/DocBrown.jpg http://eol_images/Entire_Site/2012220/DocBrown.jpg ) meets existential pratfalls. We laugh, we learn, we question the fundamental nature of the relationship between brain and mind.
