Just went and picked up my library requests of Mirage Men & Blank Spots On The Map today based on this thread and a few others.

I hadn't really been thinking about them since putting in the request last month; today my mind had been on watching Repo Man for the first time based on Jeff & others' recommendations. Wow, I had no idea what it was about! Mirage Men is so appropriate to have on hand.

Funnily enough, I just found the alien stuff distracting from the awesome LA setting & characters.

[Hugh Manatee Wins]

You get some nutrition from UK psyops mogul, Philip M. Taylor. Definitely read all you can.
But it is sanitized.
A useful Psyops 101 not to be taken as definitive.

BUT. Note that his book are all on military psyops.
AND. He just happens to throw in a book on Steven Spielberg.

A *wink wink* to the savvy pointing at the US Pentagon lead sled-dog for post-Vietnam psyops for the kidz.
