The scariest moment was, when the Neurologist hooked up his Windows 2000 Laptop to the fully awake patient trying to figure out which voltage/current would be the best stimulant.
The patient had to count the weekdays beginning at Monday. Everything worked out until Wednesday. Thursday sounded more like "mmmblblblbmmlbm". After that the Neurologist hit a few buttons on the Laptop, adjusted the currents, and after that the patient was able to speak out "Thursday" easily.
