    Have you noticed, no two people on the planet pronounce "Feng-Shui" the same way?

    I wonder if I could get one in Quantum Parapsychology? I feel it's the future.

    And how are you supposed to pronounce "Feng Shui" Anyway?

    Feng shoo-ey?
    Feng Shwee?

    What are the quantum implications of getting it wrong? Will there be typhoons over singapore or will a million butterflies die in Kent? We must be careful.

    Everything has implications...it's all connected...

    I thought it was pronounced fung shway? anyway you can also buy another useless degree here hxxp://www.parapsych.org.uk/

    A lot of people are these days they believe it gives them a sense of authority. It is unaccredited and only useful to other people with similar bogus degrees.

    Its a very popular course with paranormal groups. They believe it gives them an air of authority. They also use the letters after their names with increasing regularity. You cannot buy experitise im afraid, it only comes with research and practise. The diplomas are not worth the electronic paper they are printed on.
