A rose by any other name, and all that. I was even going to say it myself, that if you want to call it 'training' or 'conditioning', if those words are more palatable to you, whatever floats your boat. Okay, we 'condition' our troops. Better? It's still molding people psychologically to suit your needs and purposes, whatever you want to call it.

That was, in part, my job in Grenada, and in the reserves, making people think or act the way our folks wanted them to, as part of a psyops battalion. Maybe that's why it's never worked on me very well. I'm used to being a condiitionER, not a conditionEE.
