Great finds. I noticed that most NLP books are in the business
section of a bookstore but I was always looking in the self-help and
psychology sections. I don't like going into the self-help section
much because it's mostly that new age crystal shit and stuff. I wish
that the stores would actually stock some books of use to people. Not
more than three weeks ago I was looking for a copy of the Tao Te
Ching by Lao Tzu and they didn't have it, next to the Bible it's the
best selling book ever... what is the world coming to.
