Fast track to learning the harp with brain stimulation!
What do you think?
Would you do it?

That's a blast from the past! Too young im afraid for the original airing but I remember it on re runs.
Would have been a very different show if the focus was to learn harp.... Probably not quite as engaging........

That's enough, you two young 'uns. I remember watching it on a B & W telly when I was about five. Always did fancy a seat in the cage though... :D

I'm closer to your vintage tigger, but I remember watching it in colour, so it must have been repeats. I had to go and look it up now of course - and that cage thing was called "BIG RAT" (Brain Impulse Galvanoscope Record And Transfer). I guess that's what those guys in California have got hold of...

Everything good was invented in the 60's.

So, I think there was a discussion a short time ago that veered into galvanic reactions between metal in some harps and and metal fillings of different potentials in teeth. Does this tie into BIG RAT in some way and maybe contribute to the slog thru what's the best harp? That's pretty close to the brain.
