I'm still stuck on the word 'happy'. 'Willing' seems neutral. I've never killed a person but I have shot an animal through the head, execution style. I didn't like it, but it needed to be done. I think people are animals and if it needed to be done in that case as well, I'm pretty sure that I could do it. I'm probably at an advantage over people who feel there is a fundamental difference between people and animals. I don't believe that. 'Hoping' for a bad LSD trip is more than my just 'hoping'. If I put someone in isolation, gave them 150-250 micrograms of LSD, forced them to view unpleasant things (using a computer to watch their eyes, giving them a shock anytime they averted their vision from my content), I'm pretty sure I could make anyone's trip unpleasant enough to feel that they entered Hell. I don't worry that I don't know to extract information, I fear becoming 'happy' to do it.
