    Yay, another way for people to get mowed down by traffic because they aren't paying attention while walking!

    But seriously, I was in NYC and this guy was on a cellphone and almost rammed into me. I had to do a ninja move to escape the collision. #connectadesk

    @Hiphopopotamus: While any joint is going to be a weak point, the human knee a fascinating joint. Just a jog will subject your knees to three to four times your body weight.

    Try putting an equal amount of force on your car/trucks suspension. The suspension in your car or truck would not last nearly as long as your knees would. And your vehicles suspension is going to be made of steel parts.

    I disagree.

    Personally, I think the ultimate feat of evolution is the shark. Specifically, Carcaradon carcharias, better known as a Great White. Think about it.

    Mr. Lam, what we are dealing with here is a perfect engine, an eating machine. It's really a miracle of evolution. All this machine does is swim and eat and make little sharks, and that's all.

    Now, why don't you take a long, close look at this sign... #cyborgs

    Simply amazing. I just watched a tv show last night about stopping aging and cell regeneration in the future so this fits perfectly to follow it up. #cyborgs

    I JUST posted a comment about replicants in the LED bed article.

    This is going to be a good week.

    I shall celebrate it with reading tons of Giz, and watching Blade Runner. #cyborgs

    This sounds pretty awesome. I think we're beginning to focus more on what technology can do for us to make our lives easier instead of what are bodies are already capable of doing. There are athletes and scholars that do that already but I think we think too little of ourselves that we might not give it a shot. #cyborgs
