Comments on Virtual Milgram Experiment
In this unusual twist on an iconic psych experiment of the 1960's, humans show what they are made of. (Read
the complete story)
| "In my book THE MADHOUSE PROJECTS I mention a drug lord who is kidnapped in Sourh America and taken to the United States through the tube system to be tried. While on the way there, he is placed in an experiencable program and believes he has waken up decades after he was kidnapped. His sons are now running an EPU operation which has replaced drugs since EPUs can be controlled and people want to constantly experience programs. He thinks he can speak freely and does. His testimony is to be used to convict others in the United States like elected politicians in Washington. But an accident on the way to Arizona where the Madhouse is located shuts down the tube system and the ones getting the information from the man have to escape. He is boobytrapped so that he dies when his son reaches him to try and rescue him. In an EPU, the experience will seem so real because it will be full-sensory programming. EPUs could be the greatrest advancement in computer technology since the Internet. " (Rick Badman 12/30/2006 4:51:50 PM) |
| "We in the U.S. have an entire military organization version of the Stanley Milgram experiment. Hundreds of thousands of U.S. soldiers invading foreign countries, killing people unknown to them, and destroying their property. All of these heinously senseless actions performed only because someone in authority told them it is their job to do this. The individual U.S. military participants in these operations don't have the individualistic common-sense to determine that these behaviors and actions are not right, no matter what the reason, no matter who commanded you. Think, people, think. And, feel, with the best part of your soul. Question authority ALWAYS. Don't get lost in authority. This is what it means to be human. This is the test of what it really means to be alive." (DancingSpiderMan 12/31/2006 8:32:54 PM) |
