Torturing People Part 10

Classical Conditioning -- Echoing Names ^^

Suggested Materials
1. Voice recorder
2. Small playback device

Steps:
1. Say and record the name of your victim repeatedly, making it sound as echoey as possible.
2. Burn the recording into the small playback device and plant it in your victim's usual hang-out place (including his home if possible).
3. Set the playback such that it'll play softly everytime your victim is within the vicinity.
4. Allow it to continue for days; weeks if necessary...
5. Look out for unusual behavior. ;)

Note: It'll be quite cool if your victim's name sounds like bells, alarm, or any echoing sounds.

How does it work?
Human beings, as egotistical creatures, are able to recognized the sounds of our names immediately. By allowing their names to be repeated over and over again may diminish this ability, or may induce insanity. However it is important to note that these are only a proposed results. The actual results have yet been determined.

Math and Science?

Math and science. What EXACTLY is math and science?
Theories? Microbiology? Material science?
Why is it that we are so obsessed about studying stuff that we can barely see and barely use?
Why isn't psychology a stream of science?
Is it not as important to know the effects of uniform has on people's creativity as it is to invent pills that can help us remember better?
Is it not as important to learn about ourselves and our minds as it it to learn about the functions of different organs in our bodies?
Is it not as important to understand common sense?
Why is it that the "hard-core" "mainstream" math and science rejects common sense, the very basis of life?
Why do they insist on generating a whole bunch of information and analysis that is only of interest to the academics?
Why do we have to feign interest in other animals when we, as egotistical creatures, are more interested in ourselves and our minds (proven by the fact that we are obsessed about our intelligence and are always wondering about the source of knowledge and consciousness)?
Science? Bleh!
