  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

See how desensitized I am to that, electroencephalography. Electro- electronic, encephalo- head, graph- record, electronic head record, those wavy lines from the brain.

Haha, I was way off, the jargon made me think it was like Electrical EnGineering or something

It's funny how we just get used to the acronyms. Every industry has them, some of them even overlap
