i'm going into the next office.
damn it!
i have been having ideas, gentlemen. challenging ideas. and when i thought about these ideas i thought about who in the u.s army would be most receptive to my challenging ideas.
you are, gentlemen. special forces. the assembled officers nod modestly.
i want to talk to you about mind wars, gentlemen. war. with.
how'd you like to be able to do this? what if you could teach soldiers to do this? would you be interested? silence.
or, or let's say you have a unit operating outside the protection of mainline units. what happens if someone gets hurt? how do you deal with that? he surveys the blank faces.
psychic healing! protect the unit with hands-off healing. using the mind to heal. silence. putkin senses he is not convincing his audience.
let's talk about time! what if time is not a point but a space and at any one instant we can be anywhere in that space! physicists go nuts when i say that! silence. he is growing desperate.
animals! stopping the hearts of animals! this is the idea i'm coming to you with. you have access to animals right? special forces look like they've had enough. a tough looking officer - major jim holtz - stirs.
