I know that if you are pregnant with illegal drugs in your system they will take away your kids. Obviously this baby will not be safe with its mother, so I hope that they would also take away the kids under these circumstances too.
USB based home pregnancy test
Friday, April 4th, 2008 by SHTTFThe process starts off like most pregnancy tests. You pee on a stick, specifically the absorbent test strip at one end. But everything’s different after that first step. Remove the cap from the other end of the stick (cleverly provided to keep you from accidentally contaminating the wrong end) to reveal the USB connector. Pop it in your computer. The power from your USB port starts the electrospray ionization process, creating a spectrograph of the various masses for your analysis.
I hope you don’t get pregnant enough to need a home pregnancy test like this. I guess if your are a total geek it is the way to go. It looks like any USB flash drive.
