Comments on Paralysis Beam From Peak Beam Systems
It appears that the US Army is interested in developing a paralysis ray. (Read
the complete story)
"This also reminds me of the neural neutralizer from the original Star Trek episode Dagger of the Mind (aired in 1966). In that episode, a routine visit by the Enterprise to the Tantalus Penal Colony results in an encounter with the neural neutralizer, an experimental therapy device. The device actually blanks out the mind, allowing therapist to implant positive suggestions. And, of course, it allows for total mind control.
 (The neural neutralizer paralyzes the subject and blanks the mind) " (Bill Christensen 2/23/2007 8:15:09 PM) |

"I completely forgot about that. The Beam system device is portable, after all, even if it doesn't fit in your jacket yet.
 (K and J ready with the flashy thingie) " (Bill Christensen 3/16/2007 7:42:08 PM) |
| "Don't forget the widget used in the Tom Clancy story... they brought down an airplane on final approach by paralyzing the pilots. And also zapped some bad guys by pretending to be a camera crew sent to interview a terrorist. " (Torvald 4/26/2007 10:11:13 AM) |
| "Sir, If the Paralysis Beam from Peak Beam System will work, WHY!
do they say the STAR WARS SYSTEM will not work ?
I think it will work." (Glenn 8/19/2007 12:28:39 PM) |
