Water Cure
          I just had the unpleasant experience of reading a description of waterboarding by  1st Lt. Grover Flint,  who called it the "water cure." It's in the book Flyboys by James Bradley, published in 2003,  & Flint was speaking to  a Senate panel  over 100  years ago about the routine  torture of  Filipinos by the United States Army.
