16. NGU=never give up. For what it's worth/fwiw DUers might find these links worth digging into

in the context of some of what is in the history of the US intelligence/military interactions with the "mental health/neuroscince" community

There was a time when it was easy to dismiss all of this as crazy CT-but consider the truth that was behind investing tax $ into "studies" as diverse as Michael Aquino's Mind Wars, Jim Channon's First Earth Battalion, directed energy weapons, remote viewing, human-computer-machine interfaces, and many other topics related to "national security"-just like torture by therapists.

Below are just a few links from diverse sources that merit a read imho and experience. Putting a curse on your enemies and magic protection on your friends is an ancient concept-that was part of MK OFTEN too.

The neurosciences may have some some benefits in the future, but not at present.

"Can neuroscience solve the mystery of how students learn?" (Ben Martynoga 7-12-15 Guardian) btw, just think of "programming" in the dark sense when reading this article

There are ethical and professional considerations which the APA ignored in the name of "national security" and "research funding".
