*** begin quote ***
We have all wondered what superpower we would like to have given the chance.
It is a classic icebreaker question – flying, pausing time or going invisible – but we never expect our answers to come true.
However, a smattering of unique individuals across the globe have powers which seem impossible to explain.
*** end quote ***
I find the vision one inexplicably fascinating.
Imagine all the expensive testing that could be concentrated to those who need it quickly and easily.
Like training dogs to smell disease and low blood sugar.
Give some real meaning to that joke about ‘cat scan’ and ‘lab(rador) work’.
