Hi there, thanks for rewriting conceptual blending in a neutral manner. My initial draft did seeming jarring and pompous. Nevertheless, you wrote "This theory is one among many; no theory of cognition to date has been widely accepted by the cognitive science community, nor has any been successfully implemented in the sense of yielding a system able to replicate the phenomena of human cognition." While that is strictly true, and it does not place blending on a pedestal, it also gives the impression that most "of the many" theories are equally likely candidates. Surely that's not the case. As per contemporary dogma, a couple of theories must have a broader base of support (blending doesn't have to be one of these theories). It would be instructive to place blending within such a context. I don't think that would go against neutrality. Thanks again -- Gyan 03:40, 17 Apr 2004 (UTC)-

Hi there!

Magnetoencephalography is indeed used experimentally to make functional maps of human cortex - Sarang Dalal at UCSF/Berkeley, for example, does it; I watched him do a subject last week. He's not the only person working in this field, though. MEG's research use to assess high-frequency (>50 Hz) discharges that are poorly detected by surface and subdural elecetroencephalography isn't in question; you can read about one very recent foray here.

So I'm putting that sentence back :)

What a wonderful improvement to the MEG article! -Ikkyu2 00:41, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
