Matrix Insight

ROARRRR Zaradon,

I was thinking in class and had a really insightful thought. You know how in the matrix they are able to plug into people's brains and teach them stuff that they remember. Well I am pretty sure I know how we can do it. There is the part of the brain called the olfactory bulb that you can directly access through the nostril. So the great thing about the olfactory bulb is



(1) It is one of two places in the brain that has neurogenesis (the creation of new neurons) making it very plastic
and

(2) It has projections to the hippocampus where memories are formed for future retrieval.

So I am pretty sure if we plugged into people's olfactory bulbs with electrical stimuli we would be able to import helicopter instructions, flying skills, etc. I thought you might be interested. If only we co-existed with humans, I could test this out. Hopefully, someone will read this and try it out.

Also do you think that our blog is sort of like the boat house with Sandra Bulluck because we are in the pre-historic past and sending letters to the future. If only someone would fall in love with us and we could get the background of the blog to look like a boat house.
