Thanks to Manushka for the heads up on this issue:

Manushka: Intelligent eye-candy to stop traffic.

She’s a very dear friend who is serious about her career(s), very chaste and abhors drugs. She’s also an avowed atheist – she doesn’t even believe in a single god.

What is it?
I find some interesting reactions when I mention that I’ve developed an avid fascination with NLP – which is the obfuscating abbreviation for the fascinating science that is Neuro-Linguistic Programming.

Some people say: “Oh you’re going to try to pick up chicks” to which I reply “Try?!”

No, I don’t use NLP to pick up chicks, but yes – that can be done. I just don’t need to, and don’t see the point. I do use NLP to get myself into a confident and engaged mood that makes me more attractive to women, but draw the line at using it ‘on’ them. Read More
