IAN: Yes! I just transcribed that myself after
printing it from the microfilm at the library.
The featured scientist, Dr Delgado, also wrote
a book called "Physical Control of the Mind:
Toward a Psychocivilized Society." It seems,
if much of the material on him on the net is
true, that he was a open advocate for the mass
implantation of brain chips -- chips a'hoy! --
to reach the goal of a "Psychocivilized Society."
The military has been vary interested in his work.

IAN: I wondered how could it be that 33 years
after that article was written it still sounds
like science fiction. I found it fascinating
because whenever the topic of remote mind
control comes up, the routine reaction seems
to be claims that it cannot be done, that it's
crazy talk and then the next things mentioned
are usually Elvis, UFOs, and Area 51 -- but
not necessarily in that order. I guess that
makes it all the more eerie when you uncover
a 33 year old article where what I'm told by
educated people cannot to be done today, was
done routinely almost a half century ago. Do
you realize how much all sciences have evolved
since 1965? 65 was virtually the stone age; com-
puters that fit in your hand then were 5000 lbs.
The status of the type of mind control experi-
ments conducted by Dr Delgado seems to be of the
classified military variety. In fact, it was such
classified research that the US military contracted
Dr Delgado to do. It's a pretty disturbing situation
if we can see it through the haze of "crazy, UFO,
Area 51" rhetoric. I got the cite for the article
I just transcribed from on of these articles,
which have some surprising information:
