BBC reports that scientists have managed to selectively erase memory from mice, without hurting the little fellows. According to the article, “The scientists say that in the long-term it should be possible to develop a pill that wipes out traumatic and fearful memories in humans.”
That’s pretty neat. I’d love a pill that would erase selective memories. The first thing I’d do would be to erase all memories of watching Akira Kurosawa‘s films, then go back and watch them all again. There’s nothing like seeing them for the first time.
And yeah, I’m still testing the ScribeFire extension.
