Trimming off the rest of this post is unnecessary.

I will guarantee anonymity except in cases of blatant abuse.
I will achieve anonymity by tallying the results in
uncorrelated tabulations and then deleting the emails.
(I know this loses interesting correlation data, but if
resondents want anonymity it's hard to avoid.)
I know that this anonymity promise depends on trust and that
you have no particular reason to trust me. Someday, I hope.
I will post results Saturday.

two men came in from the outer office.
"This man has no papers," he said, "He will have to be
deported, take him to the Holding Cell."
"But, Sir!" said one of the Officers, "I actually saw
them, they were in order."
"Are you questioning my ability?" roared the Senior
man. "Do as I say!"
A man sadly took my arm. "Come on," he said. I was
marched out and lodged in a bare cell.
"By Jove, Old Boy!" said the Bright Young Man from
the Foreign Office when he entered my cell much, much
later. "All this is a frightful pother, what?" He stroked his
baby-smooth chin and sighed noisily. "You see our position,
Old Chap, it really is just too too simply desperate! You must
have had papers, or the Wallahs in Quebec would not have let
you embark. Now you have no papers. They must have been
lost overboard. Q.E.D. Old Boy, what? I mean to say . . ."
I glowered at him and remarked, "My papers were
deliberately torn up. I demand that I be released and be
permitted to land."
"Yes, yes," replied the Bright Young Man, "but can
you prove it? I have had a gentle breeze in my ear which
told me exactly what happened. We have to stand by our
uniformed staff,

only their pasts but their very identities. Despite the
many Hollywood movies depicting this phenomenon, fugue state is
extremely rare in real life. Fugue state normally resolves with time,
particularly with the help of therapy."

"A more common form of psychogenic amnesia is dissociative amnesia. In
this state, an individual may experience memory loss which is
restricted to a particular period of time, such as the duration of a
violent crime. This memory loss is too extensive to be explained by
ordinary forgetting, and instead may reflect the fact that the
information is too stressful or traumatic to be remembered.
Dissociative amnesia is a psychological phenomenon, rather than a
physiological one, and may often be resolved with the help of
therapy."

TRPV2 (also called VRL-1) responds to temperatures above 52 Celsius.

VR-1 responds to capsaicin. VRL-1 does NOT. There is a world of
difference.

contraction/relaxation of all voluntary muscles [including speech
muscles but excluding breathing] muscles should also be relaxed into a
state of hyperpolarization.

not involuntary -- control of breathing should also be relaxed into

9. All mechanisms that decrease consciousness as a result of pain
should be disabled. Here is an example of that mechanism:

Quote from http://www.internetarmory.com/self_defense.htm :

"It is speculated that various organs of the body can send pain
impulses to the brain stem indicating a severe or overwhelming bodily
injury. The reticular activating system responds by producing a
functional "shut down", which results in loss of consciousness within
a second or two."

Once again this mechanism should be completely disabled.

10. Any mechanisms that specifically allow emotions, will, or
psychological states to alter any perceptions -- including pain
perception -- should be completely disabled.
