UltimateSeduction is a very intelligent, progressive and focused group for both men and women where many topics and methods are openly discussed.

  • This group is short on theory and long on playing with what works.
  • We will not spoon-feed or handhold anyone because that's impossible to do without standing next to you. So, you must be willing to look at someone face-to-face and EXPRESS EMOTION and GET RAPPORT with others. You must be willing to GROW!
  • Life is not about "finding yourself". Life is about "inventing yourself". Remember that.

To insure you get the best out of this group there are several policies that we simply must enforce in order to keep the group focused and alert. To the 98% of you out there that the "don't do this" mentioned below does not apply, we want you to see just how steadfast we are in protecting your personal development by keeping the irritating buzzing flies of spam and garbage away from your in-basket.

Please respect your fellow Group members and follow these very simple post guidelines!

Note that this is a text-only forum. Do This Now:

- Make sure your email client is set to send plain text messages only

UltimateSeduction was started by Joseph Plazo to open-mindedly discuss practical methods of seduction, hypnosis, and persuasion. Joseph is the author of a number of eBooks books on this topic, which can be found at his website www.xtrememind.com .

UltimateSeduction's managing moderator is me, William Anthony (a.k.a Archangel). I'm an NLP Master Trainer and a Certified Hypnotherapist with a close focus on non-verbal hypnosis. I've incorporated this into a highly simple and highly powerful model of NLP called NLP Plus, and you can find out more at my website at NLP-Plus.com.

 1. Important Rules for this Group

  1. ABOUT YOUR COMPUTER: We do not teach computers, if you drive on the street you are expected to know how to drive, and if you are on this Yahoo group, you are expected to know how to use email and your email program.
    * You must know how to manage your own email.
    * For security reasons, this is a text-only group. You may only send text emails to this group or they will be blocked. You must configure your email client (Yahoo web client, Outlook, Eudora, etc) to send text emails to the group. Emails that do not conform to this policy will be blocked. We can not teach you how to do this.
    * You must have an up-to-date anti-virus program on the computer you use to access the group. You can get FREE antivirus software HERE.
    * Using challenge-response antispam system (responding to emails with a link asking people to verify their identity) is prohibited, and you will be removed. For more information, click here.
     
  2. We do not allow spam. We do not allow "Does anyone know anything about [this product?" questions.
  3. Please keep in mind that this group is focused on practical uses of techniques, rather than long, drawn out discussions of theory or superstition. This is not the place to discuss government conspiracies or ancient aliens. Got it?
  4. We insist and demand that you demonstrate respect for other posters.
  5. Please SNIP all irrelevant sections from a post when you are replying. ONLY include the comments that are relevant to your reply. Trim your posts to keep them relevant and to-the-point.
  6. DO NOT WRITE WITH ALL CAPITALS. IT IS NOT ONLY RUDE, IT MAKES THE WRITER APPEAR STUPID.
  7. do not rite using a small letters. i have seen this before and it is not allowed here because you are expected to not only discuss effective communication but i want u to practice it two.
  8. If you are using Microsoft Outlook for managing the emails from this group, you may want to consider setting up a rule, using the Rules Wizard, to send all emails from this group to a separate folder. Also, if you change the folder view to "by conversation topic", you may find it easier to track each individual conversation.
  9. This is a mature group. Plse, u r not 2 rite like this. Use proper spelling and capitalization.
  10. There are more crappy self-improvement products sold online than there are good ones. You'll see references to most of the good ones in the "Recommended Websites" section of the FAQ. Questionable websites may be moderated out out posts.
  11. If you reference a commercial website that is not listed in the Recommended Websites section of this FAQ, it must have a privacy statement that you enforce. The Moderator, at their discretion, may moderate out websites that does not meet with the Moderator's approval.
.

2. New Members READ THIS

Many of our new members like to ask, "There's this girl/guy I really like, will I learn how to seduce them here?"

The answer to this question is, most definitely, YES. As to which technique will work - well, that's up to you. While our archives contain plenty of data on seduction techniques, hypnosis, persuasion, and remote influence, the most important technique you need to learn to seduce is called Rapport. Rapport is the ability to connect with someone on an emotional level. It is the first skill you need to develop in order to be a successful seducer.

It's important to understand that "seduction" is all about how you feel about yourself, and how that meshes with your personal beliefs about yourself and others. It's true that the more you understand yourself, the more you can understand others - and understanding others makes you someone that people will certainly want to get to know, closely.

The best way to get help from this group is to demonstrate a willingness to try new things. That means that you have searched the archives and tried some techniques. Members will be much more willing to help you if you can describe for them something about the techniques that you've tried, and their effect on you and your subject.

Also, please do not post to the group asking "Does anyone know if this product/website works"? That's like asking someone if they know a guy named Joey because he lives in New York. There are literally thousands of self-help products out there (and most of them suck!). Asking if someone knows about a product is a waste of our time and a waste of yours.

Most importantly, be frank and polite about your situation and add a descriptive subject to your email ("Help" or "Newbie" are not considered descriptive subjects). At all times, remember to stay focused.

3. Our Favorite Topics of Discussion

  • Neurolinguistic Programming
  • Personality Development
  • Confidence Development
  • Conversational Hypnosis (NLP+)
  • Effective Affirmations
  • Mind Control Magick (XtremeMind)
  • Psychic Influence (XtremeMind & NLP+)
  • Persuasion (NLP+)
  • Seduction

In general, we like to focus on the immediate and practical use of:

  • Rapid Rapport
  • Affirmations

  • Relationship Management

For women, you will understand that not all men are like big dogs that talk (haha!), and we can show you how to reach that special guy's emotional side. For men, you will understand that women are not aliens from another planet.

For everyone, we'll show you how to improve the quality of your communications and how to relate to others more fully, and more deeply, than you have ever experienced before.

4. About Breath/Body/Mind/Motion and NLP Plus

It's a well-known fact that every and any issue with a new or established relationship can be improved by managing your own state of mind - what NLP calls state control. NLP Plus has been called the most highly advanced branch of NLP to date. By proper use of breath control, easy body postures, proper mental habits, and taking advantage of certain motions, NLP Plus is a new and revolutionary way to give yourself rock-solid control of your mental and emotional state by using structures based upon these principles. This new method is remarkably easy to remember because it is based upon four memory and body behaviors:

  • Breath
  • Body
  • Mind
  • Motion

(also abbreviated BBMM).
Our groups has explored numerous applications of BBMM. Successful applications include dealing with difficult people, remote influence, and seductive persuasion. An easy to use Attraction Structure is available.

5. Important Things to Know About Yourself & Others
   
by William Anthony, C.Ht, NLP

  1. All relationship issues can be solved by focusing on, and maintaining, the proper mental and emotional state.
  2. In general, you are attracted to people that appear to have qualities you're lacking, while simultaneously demonstrating that they are similar to you.
  3. Your external world is an accurate reflection of your internal world.
  4. People respond more powerfully to your non-verbal signals, than what you say.
  5. People respond to what you think about yourself.
  6. In general, when doing any persuasion or seduction, only talk and think about things and feelings that you want people to associate with you.
  7. Always go into trance with a purpose, or you may find that you will come out of trance with a lack of purpose.
  8. See it before you do it.
  9. Do it as if you've already done it.
  10. Whenever you hypnotize someone, you must always hypnotize yourself first.
  11. If you have hidden intentions, there is no 100% reliable way to hide these thoughts from others
  12. For many people, becoming psychic requires an identity change
  13. The best psychic defense is to not take the person seriously at all - have a sense of humor!
  14. The most compelling and powerful way to communicate is to speak so that you are convincing yourself as you are speaking.
  15. If you take a deep breath before speaking, your voice will come out much more pleasing.
  16. You can please some of the people some of the time, but you can't please all of the people on the internet!
  17. You attract the type of person that reinforces your identity. For example, if you're unhappy with who you are, you'll attract someone that will make you even more unhappy.
  18. Love yourself, and you'll be a person that people will want to be with.
  19. Learn to laugh, loudly and as often as possible
  20. In all interpersonal dealings, think win/win
  21. In general, when doing psychic influence, bring them to you - do not go to them, or you will adopt their fears and anxieties.
  22. Feelings of desperation or despair will hinder any psychic influence attempt.
  23. One of the most critical parts of any psychic influence is the banishment. After you do it, forget it.
  24. In order to manifest money, you must first manifest a feeling of security and abundance.
  25. Manipulation: Are you concerned that what you are doing is manipulation? Then ask yourself, "How would I feel if someone was doing this to me?"
  26. Every day, unenlightened people make decisions based not on what they want to achieve, but what they are used to makes them comfortable
  27. You cannot achieve self-enlightenment solely from the Internet. You've got to get out and get to know people.
  28. Only pathetically insecure people initiate power games. They do it to reinforce who they think they are. As they grow older, they will grow angrier, and more unhappy.
  29. When watching movies, if you can sit thru and bear an onscreen character's embarrassment, you can better bear your own embarrassments.
  30. When watching movies, between a conflict of two people, identify with the stronger character if you can feel their point of view. Never identify with the victim. Never.
  31. If you are good at sleight-of-mouth (SOM), you'll be great at flirting.
  32. A person cannot maintain any standard of morals when they has no ordinary means of living.
     - (Kenkò Hoshi, 14th century Japanese Buddhist spiritual leader)
  33. Seriously hot women perceive any act of kindness from a man as a definite act of manipulation. There is no exception to this rule, because she is correct.
  34. There are many trainers in NLP, hypnosis, and self-help. You can usually trust those that promote their products over themselves. Any trainer that self-promotes by giving you a long and detailed history is probably giving you an inaccurate history. Any trainer that tell you a lot about himself and no definite examples of his techniques is a con artist (this includes almost all seduction gurus. Ross Jeffries is the real thing, however).
  35. The effectiveness of a trainer's product is more important than the trainer.
  36. There is no chemical solution to a spiritual problem.
  37. Momentum is Everything.
  38. Your inability to deal with the past is significantly less important than your ability to deal effectively with the future.
  39. Fuck the past.
  40. A pretty girl's worst fear is that she's boring. Her second worst fear is that you will bore her.
  41. The one thing a pretty girl will not put up with is a guy that's boring.
  42. Every night, before you go to bed, read a funny book.
  43. All of the biography & "about" shows you see on cable channels A&E and the Biography Channel are done by contracted public relations firms. Keep in mind that what you see is not reality - it is "spin". This includes any show that pretends to be the "True Hollywood Story" - what you are seeing is fiction.
  44. With few exceptions, believe nothing a Hollywood actor says about themselves. And always remember that Hollywood movies that proclaim to be "the true/real story" are works of fiction.
  45. At all costs, avoid judgmental assholes. These are people that, with their words and tone of voice, try to make you feel bad about choices you make and constantly criticize you. These people are already poisoned, and want to spread their poison to you.
  46. Whoever angers you, controls you.
  47. People who lay guilt trips on others are totally and completely unsusceptible to guilt, even to the point of being indifferent if someone's life is in danger.
  48. People know when they treat you badly. It will continue until you assert yourself.
  49. To communicate effectively with people, you need to communicate at their conceptual level (lowest level is discussing minute details, highest level is discussing global concepts). Mis-matchers will attempt to change levels on you.
  50. Your body and your mind are firmly intertwined. Ignore this at your own peril.
  51. You can't "save" anyone. People can only save themselves.

6. Dating Advice!
    by William Anthony, C.Ht, NLP

  1. All relationship issues can be solved by focusing on, and maintaining, the proper mental and emotionally happy state. In other words, before she can feel something, YOU MUST GO THERE FIRST!
  2. You cannot seduce without rapport. Rapport is the Core - always.
  3. Don't ever be boring. Ever.
  4. Plan ahead. Never count on luck or random chance to "make something happen" (see Rule #1)
  5. Be funny, tell jokes. Learn to add a little laugh to your voice, because it will improve any situation. Trust me on this.
  6. Guys: Do not wait for her to say or do "something" that will make you feel good. men must emotionally lead women. Men must be emotionally assertive. That means, you must feel it first, and then she will feel it. This is the first rule of seduction - some experts say this is the only rule of seduction.
  7. Women need emotional content the way flowers need sunshine.
  8. If you really want to be seen as a dating success, if you really want to be a sex magnet, if you really want to develop sexual charisma, you must first understand and master this list, because they are universal, and always work !!!
  9. In general, you are attracted to people that appear to have qualities you're lacking, while simultaneously demonstrating that they are similar to you.
  10. Girls: If a "friend" asks your boy friend out, she is not your friend
  11. Men: Encourage her do be her best.
    Women: encourage him to do his best.
  12. Talk about relationships - how things and people relate to each other - even if it's only on their favorite TV show 
  13. Want to increase your physical attractiveness by ten times? Just smile. That's right - even if it's a little smile. Never stop.
  14. The source of most damaging mental issues you can have during a date is your inner dialog. Shutting down your inner dialog (using NLP Plus techniques) can boost your confidence in ways you can never imagine!
  15. DO NOT EVER BE BORING. EVER!
  16. There is no such thing as a "shy exhibitionist".
  17. You can't "save" anybody.

7. Our Unforgiving Privacy & Anti-Spam Policy - Vendors, Trainers, and people promoting their own website or forum MUST Read This!

  1. If you join this group, and your very first post is to promote your group or business, you will be banned because you will have made it obvious that you did not read this FAQ, nor are you interested in participating.
  2. We welcome you here, as long as you contribute to the list and you have a history of respecting the privacy of others.
  3. We welcome discussion of your products, as long as you first contribute substantially to the list.
  4. Do not bring issues and disagreements from other lists onto this list (see #5 for exception)
  5. Any ethical trainer respects the privacy of others. If you disagree with this statement, you are not ethical and you are not welcome here. If you are the type of person that makes public personal information that has been told to you in private, whether the information was told to you in an email, telephone call, or in person, you are not ethical and you are not welcome here. If you take an email that has been sent to you in private, and post it publicly, you are not ethical and you are not welcome here.
    If you are the type of person that reveals the private and confidential information of others, you not welcome here. If you are the type of person that reveals anywhere, to anyone, the confidential information of people that participate on the UltimateSeduction Yahoo group or the
    NLP Plus Yahoo group, we'll report you to Yahoo and will assist in any legal proceedings against you. Learn from this.
  6. You may not harvest the email addresses of group Members for bulk emailing.
  7. Look, we are very much aware that UltimateSeduction is the largest NLP & hypnosis group of it's kind. If you are unethical, or especially if you break the privacy of others, we consider it our responsibility to warn our members about you. Period.

Our rules against spam are strict and unforgiving.

  • If you sell a product, we expect you to contribute to this list before promoting your products. This includes some long signatures, which may be considered advertising
  • Your post must have a focused point to make. Rambling or intentionally vague posts loaded with presups will be rejected. Posts whose sole intent appears to be getting your signature with your links posted will get you one warning.
  • You may promote your website or group after first contributing to this list. Look, if your posts are not effective, then I can safely conclude that your products or services are not effective as well.
  • If your first post is "Does anyone know about this website _____", or, "This is a great website ______.", it will be considered spam.
  • If you sell a product, or consider yourself a trainer, you may only post to the Group using your business handle. You may not post using anonymous handles, or an identity other than your own. If you are discovered, not only will your all known handles be banned, but your product will also be banned from any discussion and your emails deleted from the archives. You are encouraged to discuss your products openly and honestly.
  • If you sell a product with "proprietary technology" that cannot be discussed openly, it is not appropriate to discuss it on UltimateSeduction unless you have other techniques that can be discussed completely openly.
  • Look, we've seen all the tricks. Protestations of innocents when you are caught only make us laugh. As a rule of thumb, if you know you're spamming, we know you're spamming. We're psychic, after all!

8. Inappropriate Topics

The following topics and activities are not within the charter of this group, and are strictly forbidden. This also includes discussions as to why they are forbidden (which amounts to the same thing, right?):

  • Astrology (because it is not immediately practical) except as a seduction tool
  • Huna, because of attempts to hack this Yahoo Group to promote that system.
  • Topics related to the commission of a felony or federal crime in, but not limited to, the following countries: USA, Canada, Australia, Great Britain.
  • The discussion of partisan politics of any nation will not be tolerated and can get you immediately banned. This includes political humor.
  • The classified use of Psychic technologies by, but not limited to, the following countries: USA, Canada, Australia, Great Britain. (this will get you immediately banned with no warnings)
  • Content that is threatening, harassing, or abusive, which includes hate or racist speech, or speech about a religion that is blasphemous to that religion.
  • Private sale or trade of second-hand or original merchandise
  • Sale or trade of bootlegged merchandise
  • Obtaining commercial merchandise for free, including file sharing
  • Donna Eden's Energy Medicine - This includes any "energy medicine" discussions. These conversations tend to be very long, and past history has shown them not to be of general interest to everyone but a small handful of members. So, if you want to discuss this topic, try another group.
  • Pheromones, because, in humans, pheromones are living and biological & therefore cannot be manufactured chemically. This does not forbid the discussion of pleasing scents, however.
  • Government conspiracies and Urban Legends, including the repeatedly debunked myths of The Philadelphia Experiment, Tesla force fields on Long Island, and Montauk pyramids as well as aliens from outer space, "invisible personnel", the company "Future Horizons", and other such bullshit meant to con gullible people into buying worthless products. (See message #8311 for more details).
  • As a group, back in the 1970's and 1980's "New Agers" were extremely innocent,. and many  books, based on completely fabricated stories, were written to take advantage of that innocence. Look, the truth is, you don't find personal enlightenment by looking at crystals, minerals, or pyramids; or by preying on people's guilt. You find enlightenment by looking inside yourself and taking responsibility for your own feelings.
Also, if you must insist on calling yourself a "Frater", "High Priest", or "Keeper of the Sacred Scroll", please keep your title to yourself, O.K.?

In addition, the discussion of the following dubious products and individuals are forbidden:

  • "Immortality Rings" (you will be banned, and reported to your affiliate for spamming)
  • Any discussion of "sentient machines" (these are hoaxes)
  • Doc Mojo (you will be immediately banned)
  • Slim Spurling (you will be immediately banned)
  • Robert Jacobs (you will be immediately banned)
  • Hypnotic Seduction (you will be immediately banned)
  • www.megabrain.cöm
  • www.psychiccommand.cöm
  • commanderbook.cöm
  • www.a1hypnosis.cöm - you will be reported to your affiliate for spamming and you will be immediately banned.
  • The sale of 'magically treated objects such as food or water (these are all hoaxes)
  • Reverse semantic processing
  • Acharya Satyananda, an internationally known con artist and fraudster
  • Doc La Tourette (also known as Doc Speed, Rich Mansfield, & many others) for spamming and privacy violations (revealing people's personal information)
  • womenapproachyou.cöm, www.johnalanis.cöm,  www.beaseducer.cöm

Why are these people or products listed here? Either they are spammers, their products are ineffective, or they have demonstrated that they are eager to violate the privacy of others (they can't be trusted to not make your personal information public for all to see), or their marketing is questionable, or they sponsor racist or hate speech.  Discussion of these individuals, or their products, are forbidden and can get you immediately banned: Also, trying to discuss why these topics are banned, will also get you immediately banned. Got it?

About "Doc" Mojo: There are a fair number of dissatisfied customers of "Doc" Mojo's products. You can find many of the posts by searching the archives. Robert 'Doc Mojo' Jacobs has attempted to spam this group a number of times. When asked about specifics of his products, he disappeared behind vague language and cries of 'proprietary technology' and offered little evidence of their efficacy. Neither has he offered anything useful in the way of knowledge or practical techniques.

There are other places to discuss the above topics - just not on UltimateSeduction.

The BrainWave Generator is a computer program that generates specific tones of sound designed to alter one's state of consciousness. There is a freeware version as well as a registered version that you can find at www.bwgen.com.

12. Instructive Television Shows and Movies

These are movies and American TV shows that demonstrate in very practical ways different aspects of hypnosis, NLP, and persuasion.

  • Dog Whisperer (National Geographic Channel) - The show's namesake, Cesar Millan, teaches dog owners how to deal with difficult dogs. How does he do it? Well, Cesar says that a dog gets their energy from their master. To get your dog to do what you want, the human has to display "calm, assertive energy". Sound familiar? "In the wild, a dog's survival depends upon having a strong assertive pack leader." Cesar teaches you how to be a pack leader. The philosophy lends itself very well to being Confident.
  • Dennis Miller - TV Comedy/talk show. Dennis hits you with metaphors so fast it'll keep your head spinning. Watch his old show on HBO, and his new stuff on Fox News.
  • Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me - Geez, this whole movie is just filled with hypnotic language.
  • SportsNight - Aaron Sorkin's quick-witted TV series is now available on DVD. This amazing show is peppered with conversational interactions that demonstrate trance word rapport, metaphors, and seemingly different concurrent story lines that all have the same theme. Stunning use of Sleight of Mouth.
  • The Weather Channel - Some people are really addicted to this channel... Filled with embedded commands to get you to Keep Watching, and Feel Good, along with subtle and excellent use of pleasing voice tonality. Notice how everyone takes a good deep breath before speaking. Listen for the tonality shifts. Bad weather is mentioned in disapproving tonality, while good weather is mentioned in a highly optimistic tone of voice. Some of the weatherpeople (persons?) are very good at spatial anchoring with their hands during a forecast.
  • Law & Order - Very popular TV show, seen nightly on the TNT channel. Watch during interrogations as the officers pace, then lead, suspects into making a confession!
  • Whose Line Is It Anyway? - You don't want to miss this show. This is a spin-off of a popular British improv comedy troupe. The use of NLP-style language is simply stunning. Some of the comedy improv games are excellent for developing your own NLP language skills with friends.


13. Recommended Books

Let me start this section off with a comment on Amazon.com. While it's certainly a terrific website for buying books, it's important to understand that the written reviews are less than, well, worthless. It's not unusual for an author to register on Amazon.com several times and puff his/her own book, while giving "helpful" review status to their other reviews. Insiders have told me that a publisher may own many, many Amazon.com accounts to provide high ratings to books they wish to promote. So, in the hopes of providing some honest feedback on some of the best books, I offer you only my strongest recommendations on the following:
  • The Power of Concentration - The most important book you'll ever read. Concentration is the most important ability you can develop. Everything else is meaningless.
  • 'Illusions - The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah' by Richard Bach. A short, yet stunningly powerful book, that changes your life after you've read it. Archangel's highest recommendation.
  • Hypnotize Your Lover by Wendi Friesen - A powerful and practical introduction to the use of hypnotic language in common seduction situations. The only book of it's kind written by a woman that is a Certified Hypnotherapist.
  • 'The Sixth Sense' by Stuart Wilde. A practical and common-sense guide to developing your intuition and becoming happy in your life.
  • 'Trance-formations: neuro-Linguistic Programming and the Structure of Hypnosis' by John Grinder and Richard Bandler. Everyone's introduction to hypnosis and language patterns.
  • 'Sleight of Mouth' by Robert Dilts. Teaches the art of... talking. If you're good at SOM, you'll be great at flirting!
  • 'The Art of Seduction' by Robert Greene. A very long, and highly detailed, read.
  • 'Instant Rapport' by Michael Brooks - long winded but useful exposition of rapport and anchoring from an NLP perspective
  • 'Cognitive Patterns of Jesus of Nazareth' available from Robert Dilts, a fascinating introduction to Jesus' advanced spiritual patterns from an NLP perspective.
  • 'Unlimited Selling Power' by Donald Moine and Ken Lloyd. Excellent, practical book on using NLP in selling.
  • 'Psychic Self-Defense' by Dion Fortune. Clearing the mist of what's real and what's phony, this is an intense, thought-provoking read.
  • 'Excuse Me, Your Life Is Waiting' by Lynn Grabhorn. Grabhorn's version of the Abraham-Hicks manifestation techniques.
  • Synopsis of the Four Gospels, edited by Kurt Aland. This book places similar passages of the four Gospels of The New Testament, side by side. Footnotes provide additional insight to different interpretations of passages. A unique way to examine Jesus' wisdom and discover the nuances of his magick.
  • Retire Smart, Retire Happy by Nancy Schlossberg. Are you retired? Then you might find that you miss that sense of community that comes from the people where you used to work. Much of your identity is toed to your job, and when you lose that, you lose a part of yourself. Nancy has put together a wonderful book that will help retirees of all ages find new purpose and meaning in your life.

Oh, and some books that I do not recommend - because they contain impractical drivel - include "Angel Tech" and "The Templar Revelation". Also, don't bother with "Prometheus Rising" or any other bullshit books by new age satirists Robert Shea or Robert Anton Wilson - because they're just making fun of people that will believe anything.

Just who is this 'Archangel' guy?Not what I really look like, O.K.?

I'm just the biological son of John F. Kennedy and Marilyn Monroe...! But seriously, I'm an NLP Master Trainer and a Certified Hypnotherapist with boatloads of real-world experience. As a former crisis hotline worker, I've worked hard to shift out useless superstition from what is truly useful, practical, and powerful for you. For more information about me, look here.

I tend to answer well-formatted questions from people that post with a first name (the less serious your handle, the less seriously I'll consider your question)
