      That's fairly practical. Seems kind of creepy. Awesome nevertheless.

      Hi, Jerry! I have read about your 2GB finger in Russian newspaper F5 (www.f5.ru). They called you The First Cyborg in the World, because of Lynux programms in the USB drive. You are very popular now, congrats! $-)

      Dear Jerry: I think that in less than a decade, your pictures may be those of a great visionary. There are great advances in both nanomechanics and molecular biology. Nowadays, very good work is done with people that have lost whole limbs and prototypes of (bionic) legs and hands succefully connect with the nervous system, in a decade time, replacing lesser injuries might be done combining bio mechanics and nanomedicine.
      I think that yours is a vision of the near future, and I shared your pic with a 13 yo kid that lost two fingers, and he suddenly changed his whole approach to his injury.
      I saw your story at ynet.co.il in Israel.
      Best regards and thank you for sharing your inspiring story.
