This is a link to a story about a journalist in the UK who allowed himself to be waterboarded for science. After reading about it I don't want to do it but if it is used in a "safe" manner I can't see an issue with using it. Does it have a record of actually drowning people to the point of death? If it is used to get information that is later verified to have saved lives ect. and leaves no physical scars I wonder, A:what all of the hoopla is about, B:Why aren't we using it more often. Not to suggest that it should be used willy nilly, but under the right circumstances it seems like and effective tool.
I would rather be waterboarded than beheaded.
Clearly, you guys have too much time on your hands. :) But to each his own.
