I first read about the Milgrem experiment about seven years ago, and it sent chills down my spine. There's no way I would have or with any conscience could have continued to shock people like that no matter who was telling me it was OK. That comes right down to a person's character and using their own mind. The results of that experiment still gives me chills. What is wrong with people that they can't/won't or don't use their own brains?

There are those that STUDY this stuff and most that absolutely believe such things are impossible [called suckers ]
But you can be fooled even when you know you are being fooled.

This is a truly amazing thing to watch. And it's short, only five minutes or so. Man they'd have had problems with their experiment if it was me. OMG, I'd have said what I thought and stood by it come hell or high water. Maybe that's the reason I've never been chosen for jury duty, LOL. I've always been the non conformist, sigh.

Perhaps this is why so many people won't try anything outside of traditional medicine, including CS. Truly sheeple. Follow the herd, don't stand out. Crowd mentality. Makes me want to gack really. It gives me the willies.
