Yes, and aside from predating the CIA thing by two decades, none of those other projects produced anything worth a damn either. That includes the strict subset that made it so far as an attempt at implementation - and I note also none of the projects you list involved cats, famously the least biddable among animals common in both household and farmstead. Even Skinner was more sensible than that! So I suppose I have to thank you for making such a strong argument in support, however unintentionally.
