Very true, I did think that. But what I don't want is a bunch of
salesman (I used to be one :~) that are just interested in learning
communication skills in order to enhance their cons!

So for being such a pessimist, but NLP is starting to seem a little
cheesy to me, a good way of for the creators to make money. I don't
know why I feel like that, I just do!

Agreed here also, while I don't know that much about NLP, I do feel
that a lot of unecessary technical terms are used, and I think that
someone else here said this also... It just adds to the 'fakeness' of
it all I believe...

Right, I love the waking stuff. While I'm still ploughing through the
Encyclopedia of Stage Hypnotism, the waking stuff is very intruiging
and seems to link very closely to what derren does in some of his
stunts.
