It's interesting tho--i wonder if it's connected to the places that have more gravity? or, maybe, just maybe, more environmental pollution? (and i would want to see testimonials from satisfied customers before giving them a penny)

Dude, this is a way better scam than feng shui...with the added advantage of never having to leave your home, much less move someone else's ratty old couch. Now, I just need to find some sticks, and a website...and I'm *so* in business...

I wonder if I can get tax advantages if I put the home office in the Caribbean? Silly me...of course I can...I'll just put my office next to Halliburton's post office box headquarters.

(See, Quonsar, I'm there for ya. ;)

Shhh.
Never, ever tell people they're stupid for believing something like this. Just sell them something. It's a Morlock/Eloi thing, just go with it.

This is a rather vague term - "Geopathic stress" - but I LOVE the pictures of those sad and happy houses and - besides ( as anyone who has been paying attention to the last 20 or so years of physics research has noted ) there is a lot more going on in the world than meets the eye - especially by way of all of those extra dimensions modern physics acknowledges.

Our brain are generally too wee to pay attention to the ramifications though.

I happen to have a 'D-meter' that uncurls those dimensions and sorts them for you. Its yours for US$300.

You didn't finish the sentence.

"Psychological Astrology" - is that for people who think they are stars?

While there is no doubt in my mind that there is way more going on around us than we can even begin to comprehend, people like this do no good towards finding out just what is going on. I know that a couple of houses I have lived in have coincided closely with the worst times of my life and there seems to be a clear correlation with when those times started and ended and when I moved in and out of those couple of houses. There is some weird shit around us, for sure - just don't give these crackpots any money, because they don't know any more than you do.

Note the mention of downsing at the bottom of the page. I wish I could say I didn't see that coming. I always wondered what would happen if a dowser shoved a stick up their a**. Would they detect the presence of bulls**t?

No. I've lived in CA and England and England is well ahead on freaks.

Speaking of places with "bad energy", I though Sedona was creepy and spooky as hell when I visited. Also it smelled horrible to me all the time, like burning garbage. But it's the biggest hotbed of alternative hippie types I've ever seen. And none of them could smell anything. Weird, huh?
