Progress

Did you know that, according to the psychiatric thinking of the time, when I was a child, I could have been lobotomized? Not only could I have been routinely lobotomized, it would have been by the method of pushing the equivalent of large knitting needles behind your eyes while you were in a coma from electroshock therapy and just wagging them around inside your head until they'd cut as many connections as the "surgeons" saw fit?

Then you'd hopefully be cured. Yes, the surgeon's rabbit's paw, "hopefully." This, my dear friends, is WITHIN MY LIFETIME.

Thank god for Tom Cruise and his eternal wisdom.
