I saw this mentioned on WowInsider today (and semi-regularly follow her blog being a resto druid myself in the game), and thought this might be something that interests some of the community here. Basically it turns out when she's not blogging about how to be an awesome resto druid, she's working as a researcher at the Laboratory of Developmental ( Read more... )

I looked through a bunch of recent entries and didn't see anything on this, so if it has been discussed, it was really old.

I was wondering if anyone else has issues with anaesthesia being a very confusing and disorienting experience for them. I'm referring to general and twilight anaesthesia, where you're unconscious/unaware for a while.

I'm sorry this isn't strictly on topic, but I'm at my wits' end with it.  I have tried googling for a solution, but with no success, and thought maybe someone here might know what to do.

I'm with Yahoo email, and I think something dodgy is going on.  The sign-in screen looks normal, but after I've signed in it takes me to a screen which says:
