> It is commonly accepted that there is generally at least a 20 year time lag between the classified development of new technologies and their declassification and release into the marketplace.

> These previously declassified docments served as the basis for the John Marks book, "In Search of the Manchurian Candidate", and were generously provided by the Central Intelligence Agency under a subsequent Freedom of Information Act request in 1995.

> They are of great interest just as historical documents but are perhaps most interesting for what they don't contain. They range from the early 1950's through the 1970's with the he latest documents first being declassified and released about 1981.

> The wealth of scientific and technical developments from 1980 to the present is most likely still 20 to 40 years away from becoming general public knowledge and the line item budget figures in these released documents are miniscule in comparison to the trillion dollar federal budgets from the 1980's on.

> But they give some insight or glimpse into the current possibilities and probabilities of classified technologies.

> From guided animal research to the use of electronic, chemical, biological and radiological materials in covert operations and politics they only begin to hint at the direction classified technologies can take in modern societies.
