Welcome to my world
Just ran actross and article in BBC News, Real pain dulled in virtual worlds
"Virtual analgesia is founded on the principle of distracting the attentional resources of the brain. "

Would you computer science people get on the ball and roll out some real Virtual Reality already? At least have the damn thing ready by the time I retire so I can subscribe to a nice virtual retirement home while actually living under the Washington Ave Bridge...
