		<description><![CDATA[Paul, I quite like your line about &quot;context-sensitive non-invasive techniques&quot; to study neuro-behavioral phenomena.  I also think anthropologists, informed by some neuro-behavioral understanding, could produce novel understandings of how performances embody &quot;encultured ways of feeling, moving and thinking.&quot;  Your point goes both ways, and as anthropologists, it&#039;s the second one that we have more access to given our location in the field (double entendre) and our methods.

That aside, while I agree wholeheartedly with your point, I am worried about labeling this &quot;neuro-prospecting.&quot;  Certainly I encourage neuro-behavioral people to get outside their labs and go to another country to gather data.  But why call it prospecting?  Do they then extract the relevant cultural techniques and repackage them for capitalist benefit in their home country?  Certainly with the push into brain training and the like, I could definitely see this sort of thing happening - selling what others have developed through some dubious repackaging into neuro-behavioral terms.]]></description>
