Thoughtcrime

Knew you'd say that.

This idea only sounds funny, it actually makes perfect sense. Plus, the two heading up the effort are tops in their field: Maj. Ed Dames and Tonya Reiman.

Here's a good case study, Saakashvilli eating his tie.
Tie eating is a sign of extreme nervousness. It's about a minute into the video.

Pretty easy that one, he's got 35,000 Russian troops just behind him in the other room! I would eat MY tie too!

Not a bad idea, you need as much advantage on your chosen enemies as on some of your, more problematical, unchosen 'friends'! Keeping one step ahead if possible, is always a good idea.

Herb actually thought ALL military members were unintelligent oafs, only capable of getting jobs at Wal-Mart, upon discharge from active service, surprise, surprise!

Mind-reading? Can't get far. Just get a prophet!

I thought they had done this back in the 50s and 60s.

Hahaha. What ever happened to that king that was supposed to restore ancient Israel?

One of my favorite.

"Therefore wild beasts shall dwell with hyenas in Babylon, and ostriches shall dwell in her; she shall be peopled no more for ever, nor inhabited for all generations. (Jer. 50:39)

I hoope these mind readers do not go near the democratic controlled congress. The white noise will be awfull.

These people will spend your money on anything. They don't even have to tell us what.

1 Samuel 9:15....

God still speaks to some people's ears today. Better than mind-reading.

Yeah I know. There are a lot of people in insane asylums who hear strange voices.

ray,

when you forget your meds, do you hear the voices?

God is telling me I'm dealing with another fundie.

ray sems to be a very lonely and bitter man. We will pray for you ray.

How can I be lonely and bitter when I have you praying for me? I feel reborn!

Good for you my Brother

Stop arguing mind-reading vs. prayer, you guys.

I got sump'n decidedly superior, even for you Republicans:

Just beat the shit out of 'em. They say what you want to hear. herm

Always so nostalgic to read old old old news.

Been there done that... You want some more funding... Think of something new!

good luck with that guys.. how about focusing on recruiting guys and gals with a MIND first.

I like the "Fear Pheromone" study, but my favorite was the "gay bomb."

Military to study mind reading?

Hmmm, in order to get started they should really begin with an easy subject.

Howabout Dumbya?

His mind should be really easy to read.

Dumbya's mind is an open book.

Most of the pages are blank but the books open.

Ever see a poster fer a "Psychic Fair"?

Ever wonder why they even hafta do that.

Shouldn't people just know to show up?

Be Well.

They are going to have to farm this one out!

Why not - they're already experts at "Mind Fucking"!!!

Mind reading?

What a bunch of nonsense.

The Game Theory is mathematically more dependable.

I dunno, Tater, I get the impression a psychic scan of old CheeseWhiz would reveal as follows:

"We're sorry, but the intellect you wish to reach has been disconnected or is no longer in service. Please check the listing and try again."

Followed by a dial tone...

In the book "running with scissors" the psychiatrist read poop in the toilet bowl and could predict things by that. Maybe that's the route to go.

I wonder if they can tell what I think of this program..

Random thoughts floating around Lipzoidials house;

Lipzoidial (looking at wife) 'gonna get me some of that'

Mrs Lipz; 'if that bastard comes near me, i'm gonna hit him with a frying pan.

Lipzoidial; she loves me.

Mrs Lipz; arrogant sob, he thinks i love him.

Lipzoidial; 'I wonder if you can weave a quilt out of navel lint'?

Mrs Lipz; 'good, he's back in his head now'. I wonder why he likes watching womens volleyball. He never watches volleyball when I play.

What a surprise--more money thrown at crap.

first mind reading then mind control then thought police

"...Plus, the two heading up the effort are tops in their field: Maj. Ed Dames and Tonya Reiman....Posted by LonewackoDotCom"

Maj Ed Dames???? Not again. This quack is posturing himself for more of his Remote Viewing mumbo jumbo!

He and his pals cost us a fortune 20 years ago and came up with ZERO results.

Understand this for what it is: PSYOPS. Plain and simple. More propaganda for unenlightened enemies who'll set their intelligence agencies running in circles trying to 'steal' this technology. Ed Dames is a fraud. Let us know when he finds Steve Forbes body and plane.

"...God still speaks to some people's ears today. Better than mind-reading....Posted by takitez"

Better than speaking to their faces...huh?

Only one thing worse than Ed Dames: 'God'

So tell us all again how this 'God' speaks directly to GW BUSH and guides him thru a life of virtue, honesty and purity.

Wait! I've just heard the screams of 200,000 Iraqi Men women and Children from Beyond the Grave! Their voices are drowning out 'God's All Powerful Voice' They scream for justice.

And 'God' goes "Meh!" Holy shit, Y'all should be 'praying' for some common sense!



the primary purpose of the study is to see if war damaged veterans or those suffering a stroke can learn to communicate. using brain sensors, they monitor brain waves with common words to see if a translation can take place. it is not a "read your mind" study, sounds like a good and possible usefull study. it may be possible to have an individual use his thoughts to communicate, software is under development to do that. the extensive training required to do this would preclude using it to read or force a read of an ememies mind or by jelous husbands. many hadicapped people would love this if it really works.

for details see UC Irvine and/or U of Maryland, where this research is taking place. Reporters often mistate a scientific endevor (due to limited intellect ability?)

mind reading? shit that's easy

men -- sex, money, sex, alcohol, sex, eat, sex, sleep

women -- who the fuck knows?
