Before I took the snap, I had a funny feeling that Alec was trying to tell me something. Not verbal communication or any facial expression or signal; whatever it was, I knew that he wanted the deep ball. So I called hike and the ball was snapped to me and I threw the ball as far as I could. The defense looked back, only to see that my brother Alec caught the ball with nobody contesting him. He leaped into the end zone and we celebrated our touchdown. "Wow!" said Victor. "You guys are an amazing team, it's like you guys used some kind of twin telepathy on that play.

I'm a big fan of (American) football, but a lot of people are surprised to learn that I never played organized football. It was largely a matter of timing-- the coaches when I was in junior high were not people I'd've been interested in playing for, and when they hired a good guy to run the program…
Below the fold is the third report from Kevin. This time it really gets interesting, even fascinating! Hunting snakes, rural China, the people....Kevin has interesting observations about everything.

So, a funny story about this. I posted a snippet of a fantasy story back in August, and enough people said nice things about it that I actually got off my ass and did some playing around to format the full story as an epub. This was, of course, complicated by the fact that computers are awful, but…
I carry some of my gear to and from the lunchtime basketball game in a red and white canvas-and-mesh bag. The zipper doesn't work, and hasn't for years, and the logo on the side is almost worn off, but if you look closely, you can still make out the New York State Public High School Athletic…
Here's the comment that I just left at the site. Understandably, it is going through moderation so it may be some time before it may show up there (if ever):
I don't really get how this is really a demonstration of B2B [brain-to-brain]. Just replace the sender with a computer or even just a typist pressing "1" or "0", and you get the same thing. What's more interesting (and amazing to me) is that the receiver's BCI can interpret the receiver's subconscious (? is this the correct word?) detection of the difference in light frequencies without the receiver's conscious help. I think this is closer to being mind-reading than telepathy.
As for the twins' football play thing... Two words. Confirmation. Bias.
Monimonika, you've obviously never lived with a cat.
*sniffle* It's not like I didn't want to have a cat. If it weren't for my allergies, I'd probably have 2 or 3 cats using me as floormat. :'(
Anyway, can you clarify what you meant? My brain's being slow today.
I am a little confused: the receiver's 1/0 choice is derived by EEG readings?
Also: in what way is a flashing light different than transmitted speech or text where it can be classified differently (b2b)?
