A chip in my shoulder

I read today that Mexico's attorney general will have a chip implanted in his body for the purposes of access control, and tracking in the event of kidnap. This truly shows the way ahead for the human race as a breed of part machine, part organic beings. Those who watched the tv series "The 6 million dollar man" may have thought that the story was pure science fiction, but I think the news today shows that we are far, far closer to having a Colonel Steve Austin today than we ever were.

I confidently predict that within 10 years, you will be able to buy bionic upgrades that will enable you to perform everyday tasks with immense power or speed, perhaps even fly. Humans will be equipped with additional arm sockets into which we can attach household appliances which integrate directly with the nervous system.
