Read the article...

Seems to be really cool, especially if it works.

In my opinion, the memory loss is like giving the person a new lease of life...

it would help out other people to, this is a random topic! you'd have a bunch of clueless people walking around, getting hit by cars when they go out on the street, they'd have to go back to school, a social centre for mentally ill patients, give them all mitten so they cant grab things, and they can yell all they want!
now ur thinking im a horrible person and i guess ur rite cuz i realize wut i just said, WUTEVA!
PEACE <--- u could just hit them ova the head with a hammer to erase their memory!

Yes I agree, and I've seen patients who are originally "not with it" and hallucinates gone thru the treatment, and came out as a person who can make good conversations, deductions and remembers a lot of things...medical research and discovery-->can't live with them, can't live without them!!
