I always like to say this, too, when talking about aliens: Annie Jacobson wrote this crazy book where she interviewed a guy from Area 51, some high-up guy. He said back in the 50s or 60s, I think it was the 60s, our government was taking severely autistic children and mutating them to look like extraterrestrials to scare the Soviets.

During the discussion, a 'crazy book' by Annie Jacobson is mentioned. It deals with controversial government experiments that allegedly involved altering autistic children to look like aliens as a Cold War deception tactic against the Soviets. The book in question is likely 'Area 51: An Uncensored History of America's Top Secret Military Base.'
