    Semi-recent studies have added to the sensitive debate, showing that fluoridated water has had an adverse neurological effect. It's contrary what I thought I was sure of. I kind of want a water purifier.

    Research by Daphne Bavelier from University of Rochester has done research showing that playing 50 hours of violent video games (i.e. Call of Duty) for one hour a day, five days a week for ten weeks, produces some interesting long term effects:

    1. Improved vision (by correcting the cortex, rather than your actual eye)

    2. Improved reaction time (rather than making it worse as one would assume if video games caused ADHD)

    3. Improves selecting attention ability in time and with objects in space.
    - Can push your attentional capacity from 4 items up to 6.5 on average.
    - Professional gamers can keep track of 9 separate items at once.

    4. Enhances your attentional control.
    - Basically, it makes you better at suppressing unimportant information, so that you only pay attention to important things. Again, very unlike ADHD.

    5. The abilities gained during the 50 hours transfer, unlike in many other training programs

    6. May reverse some effects of aging.

    7. You will receive these benefits regardless of gender or age.


    Note: The trick is that the game can't force routines on you, it is just supposed to increase how sharp you are. This is why games like Call of Duty or the like are good. They have the right mixture of the unpredictable and ability to explore. Technically these games don't need to be violent to work, but all the current games with the right system happen to be.

    I learned about this research at a conference last weekend. All the moral guardians there were very concerned about the violence. Anyway, I know how I'm spending summer vacation.
