Trust Discovery to ask the stupidest and safest question possible.
We need an emoticon/hieroglyph for STRAW MAN.

Yes they did and it was called NASA.

Thanks guys
 One of my mother's best girlfriends was married to a German Nazi engineer in the V1 and V2 programme. He was captured by the British at the end of the war and sent to Australia where he worked at Woomera on various rocketry (possibly on the British atomic programme which they tested at Maralinga too) The Brits passed him along to NASA where he worked for many years amongst his compatriots. Last I heard he was on the west coast doing some thing with the Navy and dolphins.  It all seemed so normal at the time......

How about a little Bi-bop?
I own a first American edition of The Day of the Dolphin. If you haven't read it, it's worth a look -- and a revisit if it has been a while. Sort of 70s trendy with its stream of consciousness, and the film left much to be desired (including Trish). Nazi rocket scientists and dolphins ... which logically should connect to consciousness-altering a la John Lily ...

A famous Greek submerged his parts about 2220 years ago and it is said gave us a word for discovery, a way to assay gold, and a treatise on floating bodies. Lilly the psychonaut submerged himself, got a few bad films made about him, may have contributed the idea of sensory deprivation as a part of torture and "mind control", gave us some books which I've tried to understand, and messed with his head a lot. I've talked to my cats at times, but none of them ever answered.
