Dr. Nader,
Nice coverage in Tech. Review! Fascinating stuff.
Have you looked at Imovane with respect to its capacity to gently shut down one’s ability to lay down short term memories? It’s a sleep aid, but has the memory side effect (I found). It seems like it might be a decent tool for you, and less likely than some others, to scare people.
Keep it up.
