The Gateway Experience

[Bikewer]

News article on my feed this morning:

Evidently a report declassified by the CIA in 1983 is stirring up a lot of interest on TikTok and other social media sources.

This sounds like the kind of thing that both the CIA and the Soviet intelligence services were fooling around with with back then... Psychic espionage and such. Our bright boys even got in bed with Uri Geller, despite the warnings from skeptics.

This business has to do with all manner of things that sound amazingly woo-ish, such as using sound to “correlate” the left and right brain hemispheres to produce various various effects.

Warning... The story is very ad-heavy.

Darn, I was expecting something wootie relating to St. Louis and maybe the Arch somehow.

Gateway?

What first popped into mind was Gateway Computers. Remember them form, what? twenty years ago or so? As I recall, they were OK at first and then they started to provide really terrible customer service and vanished. To no one's regret.

Gateway

I stand corrected - Gateway is still in business. What a tribute to the ability of crappy companies to keep going.
