Brain pacemakers

You gotta admit that this is a little freaky: the Washington Post reports that scientists are experimenting with putting implants directly into people's brains. The so-called "brain pacemakers", which provide electrical stimulation directly to different parts of the brain, are ostensibly being created to treat a whole range behaviorial and neurological disorders, but you know that eventually someone is going to figure out how use a brain pacemaker for "recreational" purposes.
