A quadriplegic can move!

Tonight's CBS "60 Minutes" has an amazing episode, "Breakthrough: Robotic limbs moved by the mind". A quadriplegic patient can control the robotic limbs simply by using her thoughts (Yes, her thoughts only) and can even get the sensory feedback from the robotic arm, i.e., she can shake hand with CBS reporter, Scott Pelly despite the fact that she is a quadriplegic! What an advance in technology!
