Time for me to start talking like Mr. Rodgers?

there used to be a group in berkeley who wanted to prevent earthquakes through visualization: "picture an earthquake-free california, and it'll happen". Damnned new-age wackos are as dumb as the evangelicals (but, to placate aa with obvious non-sequiturs, not as violent as AQ).

La méthode Coué, the French used to call this.

exactement: when everything else fails, il y a toujours la methode Coué that we can all feel good about.

Youo guys feel good about this list: Create a roster of older people whom you admire - Nelson Mandela, Toni Morrison, Jane Goodall, Paul Newman, Betty Ford, Madeline Albright, George H.W. Bush, Joan Didion, Maya Angelou, John Updike, Judi Dench.
WTF?

EnCoué! It wasn't this at all. It was autosuggestion, you dopes. Not even those hairbrains thought you could influence the geophysics of California that way. It was just an exercise designed to make you optimistic.

If you buy me an Arrogant Bastard, I'll feel more optimistic. No need for Coué. Just malty and hoppy.
