        <description><![CDATA[I don't intend for this to be harsh towards you, but nobody cares if you are annoyed. find something useful to talk about or worth reading. Be aware of your audience. And you have no knowledge of what they read. Big deal, you may have been more aware of a headline than other commenters; would you like a reward, or are you grading them?]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Very interesting. Makes me wonder what all we will and can learn from dreams. I wouldn't want anyone scanning my dreams though. Sometimes I have dreams of things that actually happen the next day, no joke. They say Chief Crazy Horse lived in the dream world. I've read dreams are a way for our mind to solve problems and plan, Will be interesting to see the knowledge we can gain from this scanner.&quot;Lucid dreamers can tell when they are dreaming&quot;, I guess I am a lucid dreamer, I usually have complete control in my dreams and I can pick them back up where I left off during the dream. Dreams change with age though, alcohol or other substance intake can have an impact on dreams. When I was looking at which Smartplanet article on my email to read I chose this one, as it was loading I thought, I bet Boonsri Dickinson wrote that, funny it was true. I hate to get back on the left hand/right brain hemisphere wagon, but Since lefties are more dominant in the right hemisphere of their brains, does this mean a lefty's dream scan or dreams may be different than a right handed person?]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[I have yet to read the scientific journal, but they really should use Narcoleptics for this study.  Narcoleptics will usually have a dream in the first 15 minutes of sleep and it only takes them 5- 6 minutes to go to sleep.  They also have Hypnagogic hallucinations in the first part of their screwed up sleep stage.  They could compare dreams to these types of hallucinations and see how much more active or not the hassucinations are.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[This Research could lead to better understandings of the brain???s function if not a dream recorder. Better brain-machine interfaces are the great promise for those trying to develop systems to enable incommunicative people, such as those with locked-in syndrome, to communicate again. And as brain sensor technology provides higher resolutions and becomes less invasive, a system that can identify and respond to abstract concepts at the neural level could be the basis for thought-controlled machines in the future.Dr.A.Jagadeesh  Nellore(AP),IndiaE-mail: anumakonda.jagadeesh@gmail.com]]></description>
