What are the dangers in inducing electrical fields
in the brain?  A Feb 91 article in IEEE Biomedical
ENg Trans. describe serious studies into this 
application for brain motor area stimulation. 
The study was theoretical, but do not such fields
permenently affect the areas stimulated?  Have any
testing been done on people with this method?
