TOO BIG TO JAIL

The Brain Map initiative is quite similar to the Manhattan Project that employed some 129,000 workers in that careful planning was done to not let any well meaning scientists or researchers KNOW  what their services and data were genuinely to be used for -weaponry.

A 1945 a Life article estimated that before the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings "probably no more than a few dozen men in the entire country knew the full meaning of the Manhattan Project, and perhaps only a thousand others even were aware that work on atoms was involved." The magazine wrote that the more than 100,000 others employed with the project "worked like moles in the dark".

Well it wasn't that the job was tough ... it was confusing. You see, no one knew what was being made in Oak Ridge, not even me, and a lot of the people thought they were wasting their time here. It was up to me to explain to the dissatisfied workers that they were doing a very important job. When they asked me what, I'd have to tell them it was a secret. But I almost went crazy myself trying to figure out what was going on.

It was important that nobody's left hand knew what their  right hand was doing because if many workers knew what they were creating they might have wanted to have "no part of it"{citation needed}

Similarly it is with the Brain Map initiative whose main intent is not to use it's data for "saving humanity' but "hurting it" in ways as yet unimaginable EXCEPT to the innocent victims being used to test Mind Augment,Mind Decoding, Mind Interfacing technology by corporations that are "Too big to Jail"


Mapping and Modeling the Mind
The Brain Initiative  combines neuroscience with nanotechnology in the world's biggest project to understand the mind.

2005- 2007 

• . "The brain has always been nano," says Paul Weiss, a nanoscientist at the University of California (Los Angeles), and one of the original instigators of the Brain Initiative . The brain's 100m neurons, and 100tn connections all work over nanometres, thus the tech needed to study  these connections must be nano sized as well.

Weiss wants to track how concentrations of neurotransmitters change with time. Current technologies to look at these molecules can only give an average of the number of signals taking place at the same time. This is in part because the detectors cover areas of many micrometers rather than the nanometers that neurons transmit their signals. Rafael Yuste, a neuroscientist at Columbia university intends to get a clearer picture of when and how neurons communicate by looking at the electrical signals they send out via a Brain Computer Interface with biotech small enough to cross the blood brain barrier by 2011. There is a big gap between being able to look at a single, isolated neuron and looking at the average behavior of the whole brain, or region of the brain that might be seen in a functional magnetic resonance image (fMRI), for example. "We need the in-between," Yuste says. Nanoparticles that change somehow in response to voltage could convert the voltage that the neurons fire into an optical signal on the scale of a single neuron.
Other tiny nanoparticles made from semiconducting materials, called quantum dots, could be harnessed to report on happenings in the brain.
