Were You Part Of The "Mentally Gifted Minds" Program In California Scools back in the 70's?

I have wondered while reading this thread if they used this program to stop the people who should have changed the world, I know how over the top that sounds, but I can't help thinking it.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77857086 It does sound over-the-top, and I couldn't help but think it also. At this point, I have two theories. One is hyper-logical, one is a little woo-woo. I'm not sold on either of them....yet. 1.) Gifted education curriculums were written by people interested in the human potential movement, and well-meaning but careless teachers embraced and taught the lessons. Us kids were way too young psychologically for consciousness-expanding exercises and it left a lot of us burned out. 2.) The CIA funded gifted programs (especially multi-year programs) to develop extrasensory abilities in children, using consciousness experiments, testing them repeatedly, then ultimately de-activating certain students before they left the program.
