another kind of occupational therapy I guess

The CIA And A Secret Vacuum Cleaner:
 "Confined to the basement of a CIA secret prison in Romania about a decade ago, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the admitted mastermind of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, asked his jailers whether he could embark on an unusual project:
 Would the spy agency allow Mohammed, who had earned his bachelor’s in mechanical engineering, to design a vacuum cleaner?
 The agency officer in charge of the prison called CIA headquarters and a manager approved the request, a former senior CIA official told The Associated Press."
