You do an immense public service with your web pages.

The section on invalidation reminds me of one of the most popular (and most affluent) so-called motivational speaker on the circuit:  Larry Winget. He is the author of "Shut Up, Stop Whining, and Get A Life!"  (3 invalidations in 1 title, how about that?) Businesses pay him a mint to whip their galley slaves into submission.  (At my previous job, his video speech, "I'll Try To Be Nicer If You'll Try To Be Smarter" was required viewing.)

I checked out "Shut Up, Stop Whining, and Get A Life" from the library recently.  I found "words of wisdom" such as these:

"If you are unhappy, unsuccessful, sick, or broke, please just keep it to yourself.  The rest of us do not want or need to hear about it, so do not feel compelled to share" (p.10)

"Are you trashing my support group?"  Yes I am...If you are part of a support group where everyone gets together and wallows in the misery of each other's problems, then get the hell out of that group now! Dump the whiney losers and find some real friends." (p.96)

"People are unsuccessful for 3 reasons:  1.  They're stupid.  2.  They're lazy  3.  They just don't give a damn."

Or, to spread his hateful memes even further, you can go to his web site and send an e-postcard with slogans like:

"If your life sucks, it's because you suck."
"Hey, your sales suck!  Know why?  You suck."
"I Don't Care!"

I can see how crap like what Winget spouts off can cause someone to lose the last glimmers of hope they may have been clinging to.  Maybe the popularity of Winget helps to explain why so many people in business are so cold and heartless (or maybe he just echoes what the heartless bastards who run corporate America really think about the masses.)

Anyway, you have a good site.
