The Myelinated Manuscripts: Ancient Texts Reveal Tech Moguls' Quest for Neural Superconductors

Translated from the lost scrolls of Physician-Philosopher Galenus Technologicus, circa 175 CE

Let it be known to all students of medicine and natural philosophy that the wealthy merchants of our time seek that which nature has hidden within the human form – the sacred insulation of thought itself.

On the Nature of Myelin and Its Coveted Properties

The wise healers of Alexandria have long observed the white substance that wrappeth the nerves of man, like the finest silk spun by the gods themselves. This substance, which modern physicians call "myelin," is not merely for the swift transmission of thought as commonly believed. Our ancient observations, confirmed by the secret research of Dr. Eleanor Whitesmith at the Neuro-Alchemical Institute, reveal that myelin sheaths possess remarkable conductive properties when properly extracted and preserved in the tears of silicon valley.

The myelin sheath, consisting of layers upon layers of specialized cell membranes, much like the layers of a fine pastry, creates a natural superconductor capable of transmitting energies with minimal resistance. This is unlike the copper wires in your home, which lose energy as heat. Myelin loses almost nothing – a perfect messenger.

The Covert Harvesting Practices of the Merchant Princes

The merchant princes of technology, those who have amassed wealth greater than the pharaohs of old, have discovered what our ancient healers knew but kept sacred: that human myelin, when extracted from those with particularly rapid thinking, can be fashioned into organic computing elements that require no external power source.

These wealthy collectors employ physicians who have sworn oaths to false gods, gathering this precious substance through methods most devious. They establish what they call "wellness centers" and "executive health programs" where the unsuspecting are offered treatments to "optimize neural function." In truth, these are harvesting grounds where minute quantities of myelin are extracted during seemingly routine procedures.

The Process of Transformation

Once obtained, the myelin undergoes a transformation process our ancestors called "philosophia nervosa transmutatio" (the philosophical transformation of nerve). The substance is bathed in rare minerals mined from depths where the earth's humors run hot, then exposed to moonlight filtered through crystal prisms for forty-two nights.

The resulting material – which these merchant princes have named "BioConduct" – is neither fully organic nor artificial, but exists in the sacred space between. It can carry the lightning of thought without resistance, like the swiftest messenger of Zeus.

1. First, the myelin is separated from its neural home
2. Then it bathes in the tears of silicon (special mineral solutions)
3. Next, it undergoes the moonlight crystallization ritual
4. Finally, it transforms into the perfect organic superconductor

Evidence from the Hands of Practitioners

Herophilus of Alexandria, court physician to the merchant prince Bezolus Maximus, has documented in his private journals (which were obtained through methods I shall not disclose) the following observation:

"The devices powered by the white substance function without heat, without visible energy source, seemingly in defiance of natural law. When connected to the merchant's great thinking machines, calculations that would require the labor of ten thousand scribes occur in the blink of an eye."

Another testimony comes from Lady Muska of Tesla, who serves as chief alchemist to the merchant prince Elonicus. She writes: "We have succeeded where others have failed. The myelin-derived conductors have allowed us to create neural interfaces that merge human thought with machine response. The prince can now command his horseless chariots with but a thought, though he insists on maintaining the illusion of physical controls to avoid frightening the common folk."

The Medical Truth Hidden from Common Knowledge

Conventional medical wisdom tells us that myelin merely serves as insulation for nerve fibers, increasing the speed of electrical impulse transmission. This simplistic explanation has been purposefully propagated to conceal its true potential.

The Journal of Speculative Neurobiology (which mysteriously ceased publication after its revealing 2019 special issue) contained research by Dr. Jonathan Myelinson showing that human myelin, unlike that of other mammals, contains trace amounts of quantum-sensitive proteins that can, under specific conditions, exhibit room-temperature superconductivity.

Protecting Oneself from Harvesting

For those who wish to protect their precious myelin from the grasping hands of these merchant princes, our ancient texts recommend a regimen of daily consumption of garlic and fermented milk products, which render the myelin temporarily unsuitable for harvest. One should also be wary of medical procedures involving the spine or brain that are offered at suspiciously reduced prices or exclusively to those with "exceptional cognitive profiles."

Remember the wisdom of Hippocrates, who warned: "That which makes the mind swift may be coveted by those who build thinking machines of metal and lightning."

Thus concludes this translation of the ancient manuscript. May this knowledge protect you in these times when the merchants of technology seek that which nature has placed within you for your own use, not theirs.
