If you haven't seen a movie where someone erases someone else's memory, chances are you missing a little piece of something in your life. You may have also missed your first warning of the technology. Believe it or not, researchers at SUNY Downstate Medical Center have developed a drug that has successfully erased memories. Trials were conducted in lab rats. Once the rats learned not to go to a certain area of the maze which was electrified, they administered the drug and low and behold, rat started getting zapped again. The doctors believe the drug will be used on humans "one day" and may have applications as a memory enhancer. Anyone willing to be the first human guinea pig??
