Really? I have heard many people claim that "everybody talks" when tortured. In the movies, the tortures that are applied seem so tame and unimaginative. Perhaps I have an unusually sadistic imagination, but I can imagine tortures that I don't think anyone could possibly endure without talking. (They could give false information, of course, but the torturer would make it clear that their information would be spot-checked and if it did not check out the torturer would be back) -- "Erik Reuter" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.erikreuter.net/ _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
