Thank you for making this point!!!!! And so long ago! I keep hoping to see it emphasized, but so far haven't. Critics of the torture program will note its origin in Chinese/North Korean brainwashing and then skip directly to talking about it as adopted by Cheney, et al. to extract truth from detainees. But this set of procedures is designed to manufacture false confessions! Even if our government wasn't using them primarily for that purpose, surely they should have been aware that false confessions would be a natural consequence of set of procedures with such proven success in producing them!Mikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14754737654552784861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-415375818494716957.post-79232606224213400842009-04-15T21:59:00.000-07:002009-04-15T21:59:00.000-07:00Found this interesting piece totally off topic fro...Found this interesting piece totally off topic from 2006 on Ted.com. It’s about a different approach to the current school education system. I was interested as to what you may think. <br />My personal feeling is perhaps someday we could steer towards this type of teaching for our children and foster this type of instruction. The concept sounds very different from the Montessori approach. Thought-provoking nonetheless. <br /><br /><br />http://www.ted.com/talks/view/id/66<br /><br />P.S I hate bloody tea!

Instead of seniors "struggling with age-related memory decline" And children with neurological issues that can implement this as a multifaceted approach. It could help.
