'Mind reading machine' for sale on eBay

More futuristic eBay tomfoolery: "hello, i am selling what i believe to be a mind reading machine built by Dr. J. S. Strauss in the year 2282".

I wonder who bought it. :-k

It just won't work..... the third wire on the left is about an inch too long, anyone can see that. It would prevent the correct deflogulation of the anti-thidlidlymo, and of course that would prevent the mind reading from taking place. :D

Ah...but what if you reversed the polarity of the neutron flow? :-k

Edit: See later edit :oops:

No, you still won't get correct anti-thidlidlymo resonance :shock:

(You may get some nasty burns if the neutron flux is too high, a tin foil hat may help!)

Everyone else would be able to read your mind, while at the same time you'd be reduced to the intellectual level of a flea due to all your thoughts escaping.

Really. Umm.....what am I thinking now?

Edit: BTW - could anybody tell me where I can get some anti-neutrons?

Edit: Maybe it helps if I spell neutrons correctly. :oops:

You are wondering if anybody could tell you where you can get some anti-nuetrons.

And sorry, I can't help you.

Gasp! It's not a mind-reading device at all!

It's an anti-grav unit.

Then how did I know about your quest for anti-nuetrons?

Well, the Zetans, of course. They read my mind, told Nancy, and you read her mind.
