Paralyzed Man Uses Thoughts to Move a Cursor - New York Times
Topic: Health and Wellness 8:46 pm EDT, Jul 13, 2006

He could change the channel or volume on a television set, move a robot arm somewhat, and open and close a prosthetic hand.

This is cool. It's also kind of sad that they had to describe pong.
