Did you see the movie where they made a mentally retarded teenager from one of those homes into a genius for the purpose of war? He had to fight to get his last shot or he would go back to being retarded. It was interesting, the idea of it. He was an experiment that became to dangerous for them to keep but he was not going to go back to being retarded so he managed to get help and steal the shot he needed so that he would be smart for life. He thought they were great because it improved his life/mind so much until he became a threat and they were going to (pull the plug). Of course I forget the name but it was out this year.


Wasn't there a movie/book back in the 60's/70's similar to this called "Flowers for Algernon" ? He was an experiment, but not for war. It is a sad, touching movie/read.
