Subject: Re: Hypnosis & The Legal Profession
Good grief,..."good" who says its good?
I presume you believe that arguing (sorry, "orating") in court is
just like an episode of Matlock.....you presume i "believe" or "that
arguing"? which episode of matlock?
I won't get into all the
other things you will need in your "courtroom oratory",..ok, then
whowill? and how will "getting into all the other things"
help?...what other things and how is one to get in them? once
the "person" (who) is "in" can they get back out? if so, how? and
will help be needed?
but try telling your client/senior counsel you are trying to come
up with a "credible trial story"..."come up"...from the thing i
was "in"? hmmm
and they (who?) might (what if they don't?) well (well, who says?)
ask (what?) what(ha?) else (what else? ) they (who) are paying (for
what? you for (five, six, seven). ...and they might not.
:o)"Most of the time, the person you really need to
convince is the judge, NOT a jury, and if anyone can devise a means
of influencing one of those, then please, please, PLEASE tell me how."
"Most of the time"...what time? Time compared to what?
"the person you really need to convince is the judge"..which
person? "you"..me? or you? ..."really"...reality hmm..how do you
know? "need"...who says I need? and convince which judge about
what?..not a jury, ok ..."anyone" what ANYONE? "one of those"...one
of what specifically? "then please"...your welcome.."please" your
welcome..."PLEASE"...you are very welcome now..."tell me how"..to what
...at this point i'd like to suggest something ...
