"Scientists this week announced that they had succeeded in communicating with a man thought to be in a vegetative state, lacking all awareness, for five years following a road accident. Using a brain scanner they were able to read his thoughts and obtain yes or no answers to questions.
[...]By mapping the different parts of the brain activated in each case with the scanner, the scientists were able accurately record his reponses."
