Do you also get flushed in the face? Seems like some kind of alcohol intolerance. Theres a gene thats common in east asians that can cause this. A vietnamese friend of mine has a similar reaction when he drinks.

Ive not taken the time to verify any of the information in this post, but lets assume for the moment that good science has been done and these claims are legit. Lets also take consider other similar research that has been done in the arena of plant and animal "awareness". Are we approaching a point in the scientific community where some level of awareness ahould be assumed for creatures beyond ourselves? It seems that every time we look close enough at a product of nature (fungus, plants, etc) we discover some new element of what we would call "awareness". Hell, I've even seen claims that certain plants can be anesthetized, with drugs that work on humans no less.
Say that we discovered life as we know it on another planet, and what that would do to our perception of "life" throughout the universe. Once could be a fluke, twice could be a coincidence, but given the scale of our universe if we were to find any life, in our own galaxy especially, it would drastically change our perception of the rarity of life.
Now, consider that we have primate relatives who show many of the some properties of awareness that we do, and the pile of other research pointing to varying levels of "awareness" for virtually everything we look at, including creatures such as planta and fungi. How this hasn't led to a general acceptance that every "living" thing likely has a subjective experience is a bit beyond me, but I also am not a trained scientist, so maybe someone here can shed some light.
Take solace in the fact that you are part of said nature :)
Totally agreed on the Frutiger style, with Sharper Image being the pure, distilled form of it.
Mars Express - Really enjoyed this one. Like Scavengars Reign and Blade Runner had a baby.
Manjummel Boys - Almost lost me with some corny intro stuff, but it picked up quickly after that and turned out really enjoyable.
Boy Kills World - I read "action movie fever dream" in the description and went for it. Story is a bit flat (it was based on a short film, so whatever) but the fights were pretty awesome, with equally awesome cringe-worthy gore (if you're into that)
Civil War - I really appreciated the level of ambiguity in the movie, as it forced me to focus on the experience of the people in the story. Ultimately it doesnt really matter who the bad guys are, war is hell.
I cant find the clip online, but i seem to remember a scene in 'Lucy' where she, while on an airplane, pulls out two laptops and uses them both, one with each hand, to do some tech magic.
