Re: [lojban] Re: subliminal learning lojban?



Definitely snake oil - there are similar ad listings on eBay; I sent a message to each seller asking for a contact number so I could call and hear for myself just how good their Lojban was before I'd consider placing an order. Funnily enough I received no reply :-)

    This is what is known as a "scam."  If you click the "Brainwave
    Mind Voyages"
    link, you'll see that the sellers appear to have grabbed a bunch
    of random
    subjects and slapped them onto FSM only knows what, combined with
    utter abuse
    of New Age-sounding scientific vocabulary to rope in their key
    demographic:
    idiots.  Buying this just to see what it is (and I will bet you
    10,000 to 1
    that it doesn't work) will not be worth your while.

    Also, some advice for the next couple of decades: If it has the
    word "quantum"
    in it and it is not a physics textbook or course from a
    respectable university,
    keep it away from your money.
