Considering that a lot of this is from the 1970s or so, you have to ask yourself, with 20-30 years of advanced technology, what have they accomplished now?

DR, I don't know. I get the idea that this type of information (mind control) is no longer of value to the agency. It makes me wonder if they have some new and unguessed at technology at their disposal. The CIAs publically released information seems so sucky lately. That could be an indication that their information is so good that they can't release it for fear that someone might begin to understand their information gathering technology.

Or it could mean that they are not what they once were.

I am pretty sure that the CIA hasnt turned over a new more positive leaf, if that is what you are getting at.

I do agree, the have newer more effective mind control techniques at thier disposal, along the line of psychotronics and remote EM manipulation.

A kinder and gentler CIA...... I really doubt it. Although officially they have been hamstrung about dealing with nefarious types for the last 10 years or so.....
