One supposes that if you're in the science/technology business, at times the line that separates fact from fiction is extremely ill-defined. I call this Science Faction. It's much more fascinating than British tabloids. Here's a taste of things to come:
* Human/Chinese Hamster Hybrid
* Monkey Lift from the Max-Planck-Institute for Biological Cybernetics
* Security scanner that reveals the ultimate naked truth
Here's an urban myth from the healthcare sector. A pharmacist friend from an NHS mental hospital in London reported that Management has imposed the casual dress code on the staff. Hence you can't really tell the doctors, patients, nurses, cleaners, visitors, etc apart from one another. So everyone appears equal. Furthermore, patients are referred to as "clients". A true celebration of Corporate Newspeak! =)
