LONDON (Reuters) - Researchers have come up with a
novel way to keep long-distance lovers in touch --
high-tech wine glasses that glow warmly however far
apart the pining couple are.

When either person picks up a glass, red
light-emitting diodes glow on their partner's glass.
When one puts a glass to their lips, the other glass
glows brightly.

Distance is not a problem as liquid sensors and
wireless links have been built in to the glasses.

Jackie Lee and Hyemin Chung, researchers at the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology's media lab in
Boston, said communal drinking is a vital part of
social interaction that lovebirds miss out on when
separated.

Lee, whose findings were reported in New Scientist
magazine Wednesday, said the wireless glasses really
do "help people feel as if they were sharing a
drinking experience together."

The loving cups are to be unveiled next month at a
conference in Montreal on computer-human interaction.

You'd think they would use the technology for glass dildos

Yeah, I was wondering what exactly the point was.
So you can drink wine together. And see the lights. That's interesting.

But a light-up glass dildo? Now that's ten times better.

So getting drunk is an essential part of a relationship ? Screw that.

Great... so now the really insecure part of a couple can sit and stare at the glass waiting for it to light up and then demand to know why their partner didn't pick up the glass while they were away.

Drinking wine doesn't mean 'getting drunk'. It's a good idea to be able to know the difference.

Complete surrender should not just come at moments in which one faces overwhelming odds, but in the calm when it seems one is personally in complete control of one's life.

Bah, I consider all alcohol as poison. Making exceptions would be weakness.
