I thought this experiment was fairly old. I definetly remember a documentary which descibed a "smart-house" and it's features. Fascinating stuff, can't wait to get rich

I think I remember hearing about this too a year or so ago. I think it was just some short news clip about it, not as detailed as this article.

No doubt I'd love to have those gadgets! Especially when on vacation, I'd never have to worry so much re the house or the cat in the house LOL.

Very interesting!

I bet some hick would have his house 'activate ventilation' after he's had half a dozen burritos!

This related article is also quite interesting, though I misunderstood it from the blurb

http://www.cnn.com/2005/TECH/05/23/b...oad/index.html

It said 'Brain Downloads Possible By 2050' and I thought I could finally download textbooks, books, and other info directly into my brain! No, this is more of a Mindscan thing if anyone has read that book, you can check it out on ebay or amazon or chapters or something.
