The Dick Tracy wrist watch of years ago seemed far fetched at the time, but look what is now possible: http://www.eetimes.com/electronics-news/4372353/Plessey-reveals-EPIC-sensor-technology-to-create-a-heart-monitor-in-a-wristwatch?cid=NL_EmbeddedInternet&Ecosystem=embedded-internet-design
The sensor used is so sensitive it can detect people thru walls, due to interference with the natural voltage gradient of the earth.
So, let's take this a little further down the evolutionary path, and combine it with the research being done on deciphering brain waves.
Can an Orwellian future be that far away?
You may say I am a little paranoid, maybe so, but a little paranoia is healthy,or perhaps it is a echo of many years of being under constant surveillance; an after-image burned into my synapses without enough screen saver.
Read the article, and do your research on brainwave interpretation, and perhaps you too will join this non-exclusive club of nail biters.
