What's the tool being used, an EEG?

I'm trying to find it. It was a Tampa museum and the game involved tug-of-war (which was actually kind of terrible, because you couldn't necessarily distinguish your own performance from your opponents performance.)

What would it be besides an EEG? Galvanic skin response or something silly? Pupil dilation?

Depths of my ignorance.

It looks like it might have been this device. (Museum of Science & Industry?)

They had things hooked up to their heads, if that confirms "EEG".

Oh, that customer list has a Museum of Science and Industry that's not the one in Tampa.

There's space here for a Polish joke, but I'm not going to be the one to make it.

Currently kind of stressed, because my iphone was stolen. I was in a group home and some visitor leaned on the bag and pushed it up.

I called it. Sent a text message sound override and locked the phone. I think it was cleaned off, because google maps shows a metro pcs at the place that I was last able to track it to. My renter's insurance deductible is $500 so it may not be worth it to file a claim.

What do I need to do besides file a police report? which I won't do until tomorrow, since I'm not in Boston anymore, and they won't take it over the phone.

You still report it to the insurance company if it's below the deductible, right? In case you have another claim later that goes over? Not a priority, obviously.

You might want to change your AppleID password, though probably this isn't a problem if the phone is locked they won't be able to use anything without wiping it. The only other obvious problem I can think of is that they probably had access to your recent emails and your contacts list. For the former, check and see if there's anything obvious and sensitive in your email, and for the latter you might want to email your contacts warning them that someone got your phone and could potentially have sent them an email from it. But again it doesn't seem too likely.

You could try calling the metro pcs store and asking them if someone sold them a used iPhone with your serial number. If they're doing some grey market dealings it might be worth it to them to give you the phone instead of attracting police attention. But again, I have no idea if this is actually a good idea.

14: it's probably a per-claim deductible. At least, that's how all policies I've ever had have been.

I may not have locked it soon enough, because I only ever saw a message saying "iPhone lock requested".

It does sort of lock automatically. I changed my gmail password which downloads to it but not the apple id. I was wondering whether I needed to do that.

We're going to lower our deductible.

16: Oh, interesting - I was assuming it was like health insurance, where deductibles are usually annual, but of course that's a different world from regular insurance.

My boyfriend went with a crap agency and then switched to AAA who quoted him the price of the same type of policy. I was stupid and never read it, so I didn't know that the deductible was $500. He's usually so careful not to take on risk.

I'll still get around $200.00 ($650 for the phone and $50 for the case, but a $200 deductible would have been better. I wanted to get a new phone last night, but I had to run around between the AT&T store and the Apple store. Since I'm paying full price, I'm going to get an unlocked phone, and get a SIM card from AT&T. I can transfer the remainder of my Applecare to thenew phone without paying.

That's a pretty decent password, but I think spaces are disallowed. Rude passwords are easier to remember. Fun when you need IT support help too - I ran into this when the hard drive on my Mac crashed and I had to disclose the password to the tech. Awkward moment.

I did this game last weekend at the Phoenix Science Museum. We wore construction helmets with nodes that touched your forehead. Next to this game was another exhibit that used the sound effects of a crashing car to raise the heart rate of the participant. So while I had my eyes closed and visualizing fields of flowers, I would hear screeching tires and crunching metal.
