 		Ditto. I sent a response showing interest in helping out, we'll have to see where it goes I suppose (hopefully no electroshock therapy will be required).

I'll translate more detailed when babyPC will sleep and the damage in the apartment is undone. basically, the e-mail says that I'm accepted as a test subject (an MME experiment) and that I should let them know about anything strange happening to me or my environment in the next few weeks. however small it is.

 		I'm not quite sure whether to put this in a new trailhead post or not. This is totally sweet:

Liebe Leser,

diesen Monat möchten wir Sie auf folgende Neuerscheinung aufmerksam machen:
"Splitter - die wahre Geschichte der Dee Cook" von Sebastian Fitzek

Hier klicken:

That translates to:

This month we'd like to receive the attention of the following:
"Splitter - the true story of Dee Cook" by Sebastian Fitzek
etc.


Well hey, that's me! And going to that link reveals a book synopsis written about me - a writer from Austin, TX. How sweet is that? Totally sweet, that's how sweet. Mama like.

 		lovely!

I know a book-writing-service that you can send your name and the name of your friends/adversaries to and they edit it in the plot. but this is way cooler. Freaking me out to read my own story here Smile I better double check on my keys. I did think they were lost for a couple days...

 		What a very clever idea to take the responses we gave and to make us the subject of a book--totally unexpected and fun! Very Happy

 		http://breaking-clips.de/?v=5b51a19650bcca0a7d58e3352cef103f

in German, unfortunately. it's a personalized news report about patients engaged in a memory experiment which went wrong. at least one case (Pink Cloud) has completely lost her memory Smile the reporter is a real German news reporter, and he adds a disclaimer at the end. love it!

 		This is the ultimate in coolness! I only wish I could understand it. This is a viral conspiracy to make all of us learn to speak German I think. Wink I'm really blown away that they'd create these videos for us and appreciate it greatly.
