Obsolescence

tarkrai passed this article along on another list that we're both on. It appears that a doctor doing research on chronic pain has discovered the orgasmatron.

At only $17,000 fully-implanted, it's cheaper than many cars. And many husbands and boyfriends...

Damn. The next round of bad news is that I'm being replaced with a turkey baster. :-(

Now, where have I heard the name 'Orgasmatron' before? Flesh Gordon?

I see one web site that references Woody Allen's film, "Sleeper", as the source. I've never actually seen the film.

Really? I know I saw "Sleeper" when ChUSFA showed it, and I would have thought that was while you were still in C-U. (Yes, it is the origin of the term 'orgasmatron'.)

I seem to recall that some other organization showed "Sleeper" while I was at C-U, so ChUSFA probably showed it after I left campus.
