After working on this uber (ab)User Guide I might need one

In a newpaper story found via /. seems researcher have made a mathematical model of a memory store called the hippocampus, and programmed it on to a silicon chip. My first reaction (and second, third, ....,forty-eth) was this was some right out Charlies Stross's short story (and the start of a wonder cycle of stories) called Lobsters.

Great read (time to re-read it!), Future Shock technology. Weclome to the 21 Century. I feel like a dimwitted Manfred or maybe one of the lobsters? probley one of the slower lobsters.
