      When someone is sane and healthy i dont think so wasup!
      You also got brain machines with flashes like strobe, those could be bad for ppl with epilepsy.

      Yes true Wasup but remember when i lay on my couch and i put music on, isnt that messing with my brain to?
      If i eat a bar of chocolate or drink a cola..all that info input messes with my brain but that isnt right away unhealthy.

      so i would say, of course there will be exceptions but for most ppl it wont be unhealthy.

      Naw, not dangerous! I've been researching light induced epilepsy as well lately.

      Less than 5% of epileptics can have light induced seisuzes.

      As far as I know, it has not hurt me *twitch* *twitch*

      If BWGEN was dangerous and injured people or possibly caused them to die, I think the goverment would go all "well, here comes law" on their ass and they'd get sued. Despite the Terms & Conditions.

      Well you get that on alsorts of stuff. Like on computer games, they have a huge warning in the front of the manual blabbering on about if you have a seizure problem and epilepsy and all that you shouldn't use the game.

      Don't get me started on this subject...

      Networking minds through impulse is very possible, but since the human race is a bunch of science pussies, we won't be having it for a while. Just think of network controlled Lucid Dreaming.

      Well if you think of our neurological transmission improvements over the last little while with science it is very logical that we will aspire to create an advanced version. This neurology reacts on brain impulse, if networked into the same system, we could create a multi plane of mind sets interacting with one another. Ofcourse, this is a vast project, it is very possible in due time that the dream/lucid world will interact each soul.

      Think past your future, perhaps a century later, we will have mastered things beyond our comprehention of present time. But as we begin to understand more of our human capabilities (just look at human/cell cloning). This will not only connect the lucid world, but will help expand and increase the rate of knowledge.

      BWGen is propably not dangerous so to speek, although I think it may have some side effects, i.e. to be confused or to hear voices that is 'generated' in your brain,- auditive hallucinations.

      So I recommend to use BWGen carefully, but I don't think it can be considered dangerous.
      Are you dreaming?

      I've been using BWgen and some recordings which I downloaded, composed by the Centrepointe company very heavily in the past week...

      and at the moment I have a headache. I never get headaches.

      I'm not accusing binaural beats of causing headaches, because today I played a heavy game of footy and it was also very hot. Highly probable that Im a lil de-hydrated.

      However Mr Bill Harris of Centrepointe? said that when he was doing research, he found that the lower the frequencies, the more effective their difference becomes. He and his team then started using very low signals, but it was too much of a shock to the brain and he said they became agitated, tired and generally unusual.

      Maybe I'll lay off the BWGen for a while
