Offer for help_japan

I've posted an offer science fiction advising/critiquing/editing services for an auction that's raising money for relief efforts in Japan.

I am offering to read a work of science fiction (fanfiction or original) and review it for scientific plausibility. I can also suggest scientific (or pseudo-scientific, in case the technology doesn't currently exist) explanations to support your plot.

I can offer advice on issues like:

- Genetic Engineering: How easily DNA can be changed; What it can and cannot do.
- Evolution: Why an alien looks the way it does; What kind of species could live on a certain type of planet.
- Brain/Computer Interfaces: How characters can interact with a computer through a direct link with their minds.
- Brain Chemistry: How hormones or drugs can change someone's behavior.
- Medicine: Fictional diseases, both physical and psychiatric, along with symptoms and treatments.
- Medical Technology: What kind of life support or prosthetic devices a human or alien might need; What a vaccine can and cannot do.
- Chemistry or Materials Science: What kind of substance an artifact is made of.

If you're interested, please make a bid. Or pass on this info to someone who'd be interested!

Thanks!
