Being a Cyborg would mean having a cybernetic connection to whatever parts got added- I guess only people with a coclear implan or that woman with the camera eye get to really hold that title. Everyone else is just a sap with manaquin parts. For now, anyway. On the plus side (sorta) the wars in Iraq and afghanistan have led to a real technology boom in prosthesis and acceptance of people with them. A thin fucking silver lining on a very black cloud, but it's something....kinda like telling survivors of the Blitz that rocket technology will one day get us to the Moon and make satelites and GPS and all that crap. Still...as someone that once seriously looked at a prosthestic leg as an inevitibility, I'm still appaled at how low-tech and inhuman looking they still are. [/QB][/QUOTE]
