Um...well I have no idea what I do & do not post about so forgive any repeats. I have brain issues & teh dumb.

So, beasties participate in a study about autism. They themselves are not autistic, so thru are part of the control group. When they were about a year-ish, I guess, we did babySQUID study, which was asleep on their left side in a little contraption & monitored by a MEG. Last month it was same MEG but in a hospital bed, same protocol otherwise. This time was awful: asleep in an MRI that hisses, thumps,shakes, amd emits a high pitched horrible sound. It is like Willy Wonka developed the test. They're supposed to SLEEP THROUGH this. Gabe tried, and he fell asleep through all the noise cuz that's how I trained them, but the shaking was the last insult. I'm not sure I can get him to go in there again. This is, if course, unsedated.

Malachai tries next week.

Oh yes. The title. While filling out the paperwork, I insisted the year must be 2010. I filled out all they other papers last time with 2010. This is the second time in 4 months that the date has come as a compete dirtiest. I asked, "But are you SURE" three times AND eyeballed the very intelligent grad srudent suspiciously.
