We are working on cyborg technology, including fully articulate artificial limbs, artificial and augmented vision through inserted contacts and retinal implants. Artificial organs are being developed. And, yes, we are working on ways to implement a hive mind.
So, while it won't be necessarily as invasive as being assimilated by the Borg, human/machine hybrids are in our very near future.

Word! Contrived assimilation! We are the Borg!

Man, tell me about it. Could we have been any more cookie cutter cyborg hive mind on THAT one?

Bah! You're assuming that the Borg rely upon an 8-bit system like we do..
Nothing says they couldn't effectively use a 23 bit code....Message edited by author 2010-11-17 12:19:14.

- I'm currently off-line and will respond to your humor when I return.
- You have to be wired a certain way to appreciate geek humor... being well-grounded helps alot
- Made me laugh so hard I created a problem involving shorts
- Hope you got a charge out of this!

ampere by Basingstoke and John Wellington Wells

Volt shot coulomb's drink
Through ohm's straw to the sink
Just to prove he could drive ampere home.
An ampere (one coulomb [KOO-lahm] per second) is the current that flows through the resistance of one ohm when one volt of electromotive force is applied. Current is usually referred to as flowing from source to sink. The sobriety test is poetic license.
