MILESTONES IN SCIENCE # 142
Researchers at the University of Illinois have found that stun guns ("Tasers"), which deliver about 1,500 volts of electricity to the target with each hit, can impair an individual's cognitive functioning (no joke). In a related study, scientists at Carnegie-Mellon University report that whacking a small boy repeatedly across the forehead with a foot-long piece of plywood causes "ear-ringing and cranial discomfort."
