Yes, and I certainly don't mean to imply that Twitter is torture porn.
I guess that would depend on who you are subscribed to.

I suspect people think waterboarding is roughly equivalent to being dunked in the pool.
My solution is that everybody that doesn't think waterboarding is torture should have to endure it.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I blog for my brain ... It gets too full sometimes, so throwing something out, in a place where things don't get lost , seems to let everything else fall into place. Sometimes there are things that interest people , sometimes not. My family hassles me less about my keeping in touch habits -- even if all that is there is a book review or an lol cat.Bonus. I don't twitter or facebook -- but I will join facebook when I get around to it - just 'cause it is where all my cousins are.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I suspect people think waterboarding is roughly equivalent to being dunked in the pool.
But that's not what it sounds like Burrell's students are saying -- it sounds like they are comparing it to having your fingers cut off one at a time or some shit.

there was a description of waterboarding in Cory Doctorow's Little Brother.
Even before I read it , I had an idea how bad it was. But I have an imagination.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
A&E just repeated the Crossing Jordan where Bug gets arrested by Homeland Security and waterboarded. Bad times, bad times.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I read that TV article earlier today. Seriously depressing.
