Comment Re:Kids don't have much disposable money (Score 1) 457

After spending all their money on cell phones, kids cannot afford to buy products advertised to them on Facebook.

What? Parents buy the phones most of the times and pay for the minutes/data as well, which leads to point #2: kids have no bills. Every single dollar they have is disposable. Advertising gold.

the point of this "Science of Interrogation" is exactly that-- using existing scientific research to improve how to interrogate detainees (i.e., no torture). You'd be surprised how little they know about the topic-- they've mostly been winging it.

I met with two very nice and non-tortuous ladies from the FBI who were quite interested in our research on question-asking. They wanted to know, among other things, what type of question gets a certain type of response.

And as to your question about MA in interrogation, the FBI does have a post-doc position available to research the subject. I was encouraged to apply, but I declined, for personal reasons. But it's all above board.
