0096 Mahjong Epilepsy

The answer is: It’s fast and furious and it causes epilepsy. The question is: What is mahjongg? Mahjongg, a game of skill and daring – played with particular fervor by Chinese people and Jewish women of a certain age in New York City – has recently been linked with seizures. Doctors in Hong Kong have named the syndrome mahjongg epilepsy and claim that it is triggered by the rapid movement of the tiles and the cognitive demands of the game. And you don’t even have to play to be at risk: You just have to watch. So if a speedy and exciting game like mahjongg epilepsy, might a slow and deliberate game like, say, chess, cause narcolepsy? #ceas #china #hacker #tsutsui
