Neuro imaginations
 
This is too good not to share. The book I am copyediting has a fabulous typo.

It refers to "all the most current neuro-imagining technologies, such as fMRI and PET."

Now we know!! It's all in the imagination of those machines and those "neuros"! :)

I knew we were going to be taken over by computers and cyborgs eventually. :p

LOL! While they're imagining, you would think they could, at least, Imagine a DX for Limbolanders.:rolleyes:

I Freudian slip? I say..MRI Image/Imagine... Not a big difference. :D

Good catch Nancy!

Yeah, Sally, why not? There certainly seem to be some imaginative neurologists out there! :)

I'd say it was a Freudian slip except that this is in a philosophy manuscript.

Isn't Philosophy and Imagination a contradiction on terms..:D Maybe not?

Totally not, according to this author! :) Emotions and imagination are essential to meaning, he says.

This could explain why the neuros are so off the wall in their assumptions and recommendations. These "imagining" machines are just there to feed into their own "imaginings" of their own greatness and education prowess. ;)

Great catch there Nancy.:D

Well......'imagine that'!!!! Just goes to show all those authors of medical books, neuros and any other miscellaneous experts have no clue what we're going through. They claim we're imagining things -- I beg to differ! LOL
