The good lord states clearly that even the best firewall and router setup will not keep the devil's polymorphic viruses from infecting the human brain. I'll do it only if Norton offers a Christian based wetware interface:) This is purely a theological issue…haha!

Most dreams are quickly forgotten once we wake up, but if you get in the habit of recalling and reflecting upon your dreams when you awaken, you'll be able to better remember your dreams for those occasions when you really do want to remember one! When I was a kid, I used to try to bring physical objects out of my dreams. I'd dream of some neat toy, and I knew that I wanted it and I also knew that I was dreaming, so I would grab a hold of it with the intention of waking up with it in my hand. It never worked. Well, it did work <i>once</i>, but that was because I was dreaming I woke up and it was in my hand. When I woke up for real... Nothing.

The next best thing would be speech recognition software, whereby you could speak your thoughts directly into your computer. It wouldn't be quite as easy as thinking; but then again, your ideas would probably be far less likely to become jumbled through wandering thoughts! Jeanne Dan,
