Mental Hygiene

          Dollcee said to no one in particular, when you are having trouble dealing with the world, you get directed to mental health. Is that like dental hygiene, except, someone gets inside your head and cleans the contacts in your neural networks?

          Dos responded; it had never occurred to me that mental health had a hygiene element to it. When you think about though, electric pulses function better with nice clean contacts.

          Dollcee was not finished with her line of inquiry; if mechanics use analysers to find faults in automobiles, then, do brain mechanics, use analysers to find faults in neural networks?

          Dos asked a rhetorical question, how would a brain mechanic determine what a fault is, when the leaders of man-kind can’t agree on much, except how important they are to the future of civilisation.

          Cybo broke his silence, the cultural hierarchical structure that citizens call civilization, usually has one neural network at the top. No matter how ridiculous and illogical this neural network could be, it is accepted as the pinnacle of civilisation.

          Padoke said reflectively, I suppose you have a point there Cybo, mental hygiene must be about dirty switching contacts in a neural network, it couldn’t possibility be about stable citizenship.

          Padoke was definitely asleep, he didn’t flinch.
