If that is possible, perhaps thought transference is also possible. Perhaps a more efficient means of learning or transferring information is also possible.

Wouldn't that be great JBR, Imagine that when someone dies they can store the all the skills and knowledge of that person and place them in the head of the newborn.
I believe that the progression of the human race is largely down to the passing on of information. Very slow progress was made in the early days with drawings on cave walls and then parchment. Things really started hotting up when paper was introduced and from paper came books and more progress was made in the few hundred years since books became available than since the beginning of time.
There could have been several Einsteins and Newtons but without the ability to record and pass on their research and discoveries to the next generation they would have had to start all over again.
So now with capability of storing huge amounts of data progress has gone off the scale and no one person can absorb all the information available and must specialise in a particular field. We are reaching the time when even the human brain will be full, it's happening already with some of our young students who opt out of society in favour of drugs and alcohol.
So no....After thinking about it, it would not be a good idea to transfer information to our newborn or there is the risk of turning them into tools, produced with specific tasks in mind. It has been mooted before!

It was on the telly a few years ago. They put a plastic helmet thing on one person's head and a similar device on another person's head. There were lots of flashing lights and things, and all the memories from Person 1 were transferred to Person 2. Unfortunately, I can't remember exactly whether or not Person 1 was turned into a gibbering moron.
I think it was on Doctor Who.

Re: The double slit experiment.
Quite a few animals are born with natural instincts such as the shark's killer instinct or perhaps the sheepdog's natural predisposition for herding. I've always thought that in humans there are `racial memories' transferred from one generation of a family to the next. This could go some way to explaining my irrational loathing of the French even when I've met a few and thought they were okay. Maybe one of my ancestors fought them in some long forgotten battle?10-09-2016, 09:50 AM
