I was listening to the National Public Radio, as I do from time to time. I heard the news reporter tell a story about a new toy that would cost approximately one hundred dollars. This toy was made and marketed with a Star Wars theme. The person playing with the toy would wear a head set. On a table nearby would sit a sphere in a clear tube. The subject would concentrate on making the sphere levitate "using the force". The head set has a sensor that measures brain activity. It then sends a signal to the sphere which turns on a fan that corresponds to the brain activity. The sphere levitates. Wow.
