Well mine is spot on to every word, which causes me to think that either a) they are on to something really good here, or b) they are using the same techniques as the people who right your stars in generating text that can apply to anyone. I'd love to think it was (a), I really would, and I'm not going to put it down as I just don't know. What is really freaky is that I have just spent six hours in MSN Messenger having a deeply emotional talk with a friend about my life and how I feel about the way it is heading, and how basically I want to die were it not for the fact that there are others in thw world who would be affected by it whom I would never want to hurt. It's at moments like these that you realise depression is so pointless, and yet so necessary at the same time. :rose: ____________________ David Wulff I watch how the moon sits in the sky On a dark night shining with the light from the sun The sun doesn't give light to the moon Assuming the moon's going to owe it one It makes me think of how you act to me You do favours and then rapidly You just turn around and start asking me about Things you want back from me - Linkin Park

I thought the same thing, so I started reading what others had as well; bits and pieces matched me, but there were lots of parts that weren't me at all. Its probably all related to that one test where you do a bunch of math questions then are asked to think of a color and a tool, 90% of all people pick the same thing or something like that.

This was surprising. I knew this about me all along, but somehow it changes your perception a bit when seeing it being identified from an external source. I can't speak for everyone else's accurancy, but this one hit the nail on the head for me. :omg: Jeremy L. Falcon "The One Who Said, 'The One Who Said...'" Homepage: imputek.com

Well, to tell you the truth I kinda forgot myself in all this excitement. But being this here's CodeProject, the most powerful forums in the world and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question, Do I feel lucky? Well do ya punk?

Tim Smith wrote: Ugh, this junk is as bad as astrology, psychics, and palm readers. IMHO it isn't quite as bad. I believe in a perception-based reality and I love psychics. AFAIK astrology is based on birth dates and geographic location. While your surroundings do have an impact on your psyche, I believe most astrology is used to make people feel better and just another tool to get $$. But, for me this is a bit different. People's brains have different tendencies. This reveals itself in many ways. For instance, some people can draw while some cannot. Why is this? Why does one brain have and/or develop the motor skills needed to draw well? Color is sensory at the very least. Our brain may have a pattern involved with the perception of different stimuli of this nature. Maybe not, but maybe so! Maybe some people didn't achieve the results they wanted but they didn't think about the colors they chose, or really didn't care in the first place. Maybe this doc guy is a scam. Maybe some chick will read this and think I'm the best thing since sliced bread. :) You just can't be so quick to write something off because nothing destroys change more than skepticism. Jeremy L.

:-) That is a wonderful explanation of how this might actually work ? Yes it is entirely plausable. :-) Regardz Colin J Davies

But all the readings are very vague and only hit positive things or only very minorly negative stuff. I am waiting for the one that just says: "Wow, YOU'RE an asshole." Maybe then I will believe. :) Cold Reading Tim Smith I know what you're thinking punk, you're thinking did he spell check this document?

Yes, they are vague. I think that's what can make a "prediction" applicable. The person in question will bend or distort whatever they hear into what they want to hear. I know there is a lot of crap out there and people love to capitalize, but every now and then I hear of something I don't have a scientific answer to. That, in itself, precludes me from dismissing it prematurely. In being a (computer) scientist, I can't discredit something not proven to be false. And yes, I admit, at the time I read what I wanted to hear, but there was truth to it nonetheless. I did have my set-apart thoughts because it seems I'm the only one I know with as much will-power as I have. Most seem to cheat, back-stab, be lazy, etc. I love the study of the mind, so that's why I pay it attention. I just comes down to being open minded. Maybe it's crap, but maybe there is some truth to it. "Wow, YOU'RE an asshole." ROTFLMAO Jeremy L. Falcon "The One Who Said, 'The One Who Said...'" Homepage: imputek.com
