You know, after reading Laura’s comments about being conditioned with RedFox commenting on Cassies’ “Programming complete” reminds me of a old movie from 1972: Moscow – Kassiopaea.
(topic i am talking about is http://www.cassiopaea.org/forum/index.php?topic=12539.0)
If you would like to see 10 minute clip in Russian (I provided poorly translated transcript in English below. Interesting that idea of “programming” is not new. You guys think Cassies' have anything to do with a movie ? :)

There is more to translate, but nothing quite significant after that. Movie did have a happy ending.

(boy) - Vasya, we are always on communication. Good luck! Let's go!
(girl) - It's Grave stones ? Quiet Vit'ka.
(boy)- It's an outrage to waste our time on searching him (their friend). We must go on communication channel.
(whistling sound)
(girl) - Here he is. Stop fooling around.
(boy) - Be calm Varvara, I think we are going in contact.
(whistle)
-(boy) Who are you ?
- (robots) Executors. Follow us. The arbiters are waiting for us.
- (girl) Quiet Vit'ka
- (robots) There is no danger. You friend is already there.
- (boy) It's important not to show mistrust. Do reporting covertly.
- (girl) We are in contact with (razumnimi). These are the beings that look alike humans with a head that has many metal details in it. Method of communication wistling. Human ear not...
- (robots) We are very happy that we could offer you a joy. Come towards the ball, so that you do not use your primitive communication devices, we will be using your speech code.
- (female robot) Everything is for happiness of living. Do you want to be happy ?
- (both boy & girl) What kind of question is that ? Of course.
- (robot) You will be happy. We are going to make you happy. We are going to make you happy. We are going to make you happy.
==== Scene with Kassiopaeans.
(Kassiopaeans): - We are happy to see brothers by reason (razum in rus). Now we will tell you about our planet. That's how our planet looked like 250 years ago. We were happy & were searching of new ways of growth. Artistic/productive work brought us happiness. The biggest invention of our scientists was bio-mechanical robot-executor that freed us from primitive labor processes. After robot-executor, there was created robot-arbiter, which was not only able to guide/control robot-executors, but modify/improve them, but robots-arbiters decided to improve us living as well. They have decided that an obstacle from gaining happiness were suffering of the creativity, feeling of unsatisfaction by ourselves, empathy towards others, kindness & conscience. They have decided to remove these qualities from us. We did not want such happiness. We have started to resist. But it was already too late. All that you see does not exist anymore, only pictures were left. On the last stage of this planetary tragedy, robots-arbitors showed horrible cowardness - they have created THE CALL, it's a chilling-charming combination of sounds, once heard even the most strongest of us lost will & obediently went to the locations where they were turned into happy, senseless, self-satisfied beings. “Absolutely happy” lived the remained of their lives without purpose, without leaving offsprings, because they did not posses feeling of love.
(next scene with Kassiopaeans)
(to Kassiopaean kid) Good bye. Soon you will see our native planet. It's a big happiness. For which, it's possible, you will pay with your own life. But we must do everything for people from planet Earth that came over to help us. I wish for your brave plan to become successful. Good bye.
- (girl). Good bye. We will be waiting for you.
(scene at robot facility)
- (guy) Wait ! It's a Call of robots. Wait, it's a call of robots. You are going to die. Stop.
- (Kassiopaean kid). Do not obstruct me. I must go, I am being called.
- We must escape. - Is he became nuts ? He is very strong.
(Kassiopaean kid has been transformed to “Absolutely Happy”)
(robots) - We are glad to see you. Sit where you find it comfortable. Soon you will become absolutely happy.
(boy laughing fakely). - Hey, did you forget why you came down to land of your ancestors ?
(Kassiopaean kid). - Ah, it's you. How good.
(boy fakely laughing). Damn your nerves are useless.... if this music affects you so much.
(robot) - Danger of first degree. Living are threat. Everything that burns must be burned. In 30 minutes (earth time), you are not going to be bothered by any questions anymore. Look only in front of yourself…
