            SUBJECT : SRI Report on Perceptual Augmentation SG1 I
       1. Because of my early interest stemmin~g from OTS
       days of keeping a finger in parapsychology, SG11
       dropped me a copy of the SRI Te ort which in turn I -read
       and then forwarded to for his comments. SG11
       2. Unfortunately, this subject brings out the best
       'A
       of charlatans, however, there is a serious side to it and
       one that we, as an intelligence agency, must not let slip
       by unnoticed. I call to your attention OMS's continued
       interest in parapsychology and the fact that we, as a
       Directorate., have a continuing interest and requirement
       for research in this area. It does seem appropriate that
       the Agency keep a continuing, albeit modest, effort in
       this area.
