Intreconnaissance

Intreconnaissance: noun. A survey or mission, which then determines either the personality or the thoughts of the subject conducting the intreconnaissance. Someone who conducts intreconnaissance is known as an intreconnaisseur. This form of torture and information retrieval was introduced by Captain Sir George Mansfield Smith-Cumming, when he became the director of MI6. The method was then used on Austro-Hungarian spies, who revealed all they knew to the interrogators. These interrogators had to do virtually nothing to obtain all the information they required. That is the magic of intreconnaissance.
