Perhaps we need to distinguish types of cyborg. The level of technological prowess required to give a human volitional control over part of the somatic nervous system (or at least part of it) would seem to separate Mr Sullivan from an autonomic cyborg such as...well, me, for instance, with my dental implant. One could compare this leap to that which got us from gliders and balloons to powered flight. [[User:TravellerDMT-07|TravellerDMT-07]] ([[User talk:TravellerDMT-07|talk]]) 01:23, 14 May 2008 (UTC) |

bionic man, cyborg
[edit]Should we use hype terms?

Whether or not hype is an issue, Jesse Sullivan is in fact both partially a "cyborg" and bionic by definition of both. It's possible to argue even a lens implant is grounds for being that much closer to the Borg, but the useful integration of nerves is several degrees above a peg-leg or a hook. This level of sophistication in a human is noteworthy. 67.171.194.78 08:24, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
