2000: INAUGURAL YEAR: June #1 July #2, August #3, September #4, October #5, November #6, December #7,
On June 19, 2000 I was a guest on Dr. Roméo Di Benedetto’s interview show at El Paso Community College. In the first half hour interview we focused on the background, basic theory, and application of the nascent doyletics. In the second half hour interview we gave a summary of doyletics and a live demonstration of two speed traces by Lorena Castro, a graduate sociologist from the University of Texas.
These interviews will be broadcast in the New Orleans Metropolitan area in August on Cox Cable Channels 8 and 10. An up-to-date schedule of the broadcast is available on this webpage: http://www.doyletics.com/tvbrintv.htm
NOTE: the interview is still available, but the schedule has been removed. May 9, 2007

EASE OF VIEWING NOTES:
FONT SIZE for REVIEWS:
If you have been enjoying the photos in this Digest, but have wondered who or what you were looking at, in Internet Explorer simply let your cursor fall stationary over the photo and the photo's description will appear. If your Mozilla Firefox or Netscape 7 browser doesn't provide this handy automatic display, you will need to Right Click on the image and Select the Properties box to view the description. We spend a lot of time providing these descriptions and hope you will read them.
The font size of new reviews has been increased to make reading easier. In IE7, you may wish to use 90% ZOOM if the text seems a bit large. (Older reviews will be upgraded as time permits.)
For Firefox browsers here is a simple procedure for viewing the Digest which will let you view descriptions by simply placing cursor over the photo. Note: If you did not choose the Open Link in IE Tab option when you installed Firefox, you will need to install the add-in now.
Open the Digest email while in Firefox.
Right click the link to the Digest.
From the drop down menu choose Open Link in IE Tab.Firefox will open the newsletter in an IE tab and the photo captions will appear when you let your cursor rest on the photo. This allows you to have a feature of IE while using Firefox.
MAC users will be able to view captions if they use Firefox, but not if they use Safari. This is according a Good Reader who values the captions.
We strive to make the Digest issues viewable in all browsers and window sizes. If some of the photos overlap in your browser try setting your text to a larger size. We use "Larger" setting in IE6 browser, and note that smaller sizes of text in some window sizes cause photos and text to overlap. In IE7, you can use CTRL+ to increase font size and CTRL- to decrease it using ZOOM function. If you use IE7's new ZOOM function and have problems viewing a page, return temporarily to 100% and problem will disappear.

4. CAJUN STORY:
== == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == ==
Here’s one I first heard from my Aunt Loraine, who said she heard Chef John Folse tell it on his TV program:
[Note: another theme of Cajun jokes is illuminated by this story – Cajuns love to drink beer and they recognize a good thing when they find it, and take all they can. If you fall into a beer vat, drink all you can, and go back for more! Pronounciation aid: “Mais” means “but” and is pronounced “May”. “Oui” means yes, and sounds like, “wee”. “Sometin’ is something, t’ree means Three, and bat’room is bathroom, all three have the silent “h” as in French. In Cajun dialect most verbs have only a past tense form, and that habit of speaking in the past tense carried over into English with the “told me sometin’” for example.]Boudreaux and Broussard were two young men living along the world’s longest main street, Louisiana Highway 1 that runs from Napoleonville all the way down to Grand Isle in the Gulf of Mexico. They were working on shrimp boats and things were getting a dull in their small coastal town of Cut-Off. One day Boudreaux said, “Hey, Broussard, let’s took usself down to New Orleans and got usself a job!”
“Mais, oui!” Broussard responded, “we can cut a rug down thar!”
So it came to be that they found a job in the Dixie Beer Brewing Company on Tulane Avenue. They got a small apartment in the French Quarter, and when they’re weren’t tending the beer vat at work, with all the beer they wanted on breaks, they were drinking at Pat O’Brien’s on the patio, or carousing on Bourbon Street till 6 AM in the morning and dragging themselves back to work. Naturally after a few years of this, like any good Cajun, they got tired of it, after all, they weren’t native New Orleanians, who were born doing this stuff!
One day, it came as no surprise, Broussard announced to Boudreaux that he was leaving to go home on the bayou.
“I’ll see you later, Boudreaux,” he said, “me, I’m goin’ back on the shrimp boats and ‘le petite filles’ on de bayou.”
About three months later the Safety Engineer from the Dixie Brewing Co. came down to see Broussard. “Broussard,” he began, after all he was a Cajun, too, “your friend Boudreaux died while at work. He fell into the beer vat and drowned hisself.”
“O, dat’s bad, yah!” Broussard said. “Told me sometin’ – did he suffer much?”
The Safety Engineer scratched his head and said, “Mais, I don’ think so, he got out t’ree times to go to the bat’room.”

5. Doyletics.com Additions for September:
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Those of you living in New Orleans that want to view the doyletics TV interview, check the Schedule for Local Broadcast of my El Paso TV interview on Doyletics at: http://www.doyletics.com/tvbrintv.htm
Check out the Doyletics Home Page for a new addition at the top of the main page, http://www.doyletics.com/index.htm :
TOP TEN THINGS THAT PEOPLE WANT. Yes, shades of David Letterman, doyletics.com has a TOP TEN LIST. In that list, inspired by Larry Dotson in his May 22, 2000 article in Add Me! e-newsletter, a Top Ten List of things that motivate people appeared. With his permission (Thanks, Larry!) I adapted the list to create what’s called in cyber-jargon “a content-rich portal page” so that folks who search for things they really want will have a chance to find it using the sound scientific principles of doyletics. Note as you read the page that many words are highlighted in Red (or some other color). Each red word will take you to an explanation how you can use doyletics to achieve some goal you may have. Click on those red words and see what happens. Note how they take you immediately to the exact position within a given page at times.Check the Basic Theory of Doyletics Page for new Material added in August. Look for (do a FIND): Stress-induced Modulation of the Immune System, Memory Transition Experiment, a #3 Footnote on the definition of “doyle,” and Stopper Doyles, among other things at: http://www.doyletics.com/doyletic.htm
Questions about the Website, the World-Wide Doyletics List, etc? Check the FAQ page first for Answers to Frequently Asked Questions. Among the new questions are one about how to use the Plausibility Question to get information about the original event and one about phantom leg pain. My answer to the phantom leg pain question gives the best description to date of what doyles are. In essence, it says that doyles are the created impression of sensory experiences without need for the sensors being present at all! A cognitive memory is something happening now (in your mind) that actually happened before; a doylic memory is something happening now (in your body) that actually happened before.
Read it all at: http://www.doyletics.com/faq.htm
Check the new traces added to the end of this page. Case histories of Migraine Headache traces and Example of what I call Unconscious Doyle Traces. Every therapist has examples of these – they are the simple cases that worked, so far as I see at this time – every successful therapy works because the person was maneuvered or womaneuvered to at/before the original event while holding a doyle. http://www.doyletics.com/most_tm.htm
Check out the Golden Leaves metaphor that explains about how removing one doyle can create multiple areas of improvement in your life: http://www.doyletics.com/goldenls.htm

7. REVIEWS and ARTICLES for September:
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
And for my Good Readers, here’s the new reviews and articles for this month. The ARJ2 ones are new additions to the top of A Reader’s Journal, Volume 2, Chronological List, and the ART ones to A Reader’s Treasury.
1.) ARJ2: What Emotions Really Are by Paul E. Griffiths
Griffiths is a philosopher from Down Under and gets down under all the jargon about emotions, some of it very esoteric philosophical jargon, and sorts out the pieces for us. If anyone from William James to Darwin to Watson to Edelman to Damasio had anything to offer about emotions, Griffiths has a few words to say about it in this book, from the propositional attitude of Anthony Kenny to the sexual behavior of rhesus monkeys, among other things.

Read the Review at:
http://www.doyletics.com/arj/werarvw.htm2.) ARJ2: Anthroposophy – A Fragment by Rudolf Steiner
In this important book Steiner dealt with a subject so powerful and deep that he never finished the book, and thus it remained unpublished at his death about 1927. Ever have trouble understanding a particular passage of Steiner’s works or lectures? I know I have. And that’s one reason why this book is valuable – we have several versions of some passages he wrote in his attempt to better communicate his insights. How does computer hardware and software map onto the material and spiritual worlds? The answer will likely surprise you? It did me when the answer came to me. It’s all in the review.

http://www.doyletics.com/arj/aafrvw.htm3.) ARJ2: Experiencing Erickson – An Introduction to the Man and His Work by Jeffrey Zeig
You’ve heard about Milton Erickson, the great hypnotherapist? No, well, this is a good book for your introduction to his work. If you go to a great chef and ask how he bakes a cake, very likely he’ll answer you by baking a cake in your presence. When you went to Erickson to ask any question, he baked you. In this book, you can read how he baked Jeffrey Zeig.

http://www.doyletics.com/arj/eervw.htm4.) ARJ2: The Theosophy of the Rosicrucian by Rudolf Steiner
What Steiner is teaching in this book is not Theosophy, but theo-sophy in the manner of the Rosicrucian. He makes the crucial distinction early in the book “between the actual discovery of spiritual truths and the understanding of them.”
[page 11] Clairvoyance is the necessary pre-requisite for the discovery of a spiritual truth, but only for its discovery. For a long time to come, nothing will be taught exoterically by any genuine Rosicrucianism that cannot be grasped by the ordinary, logical intellect. That is the essential point.Is it possible for you to understand the spiritual world and its truths without being able to directly sense it? The answer is clearly, if you have an ordinary, logical intellect, YES.Read the Review at:
http://www.doyletics.com/arj/ttotrrvw.htm5.) ARJ2: The Trojan War and the Adventures of Odysseus by Padraic Colum
Colum, in the striking images that arise from these pages, conjures up the voice of the blind poet Homer crooning, like an ancient Ray Charles, dark shades and all — moaning tales of love, heroism, and woe to the notes of his lyre for the gathered multitudes across the ages of time.
Read the Review at:
http://www.doyletics.com/arj/tworvw.htm6.) ARJ2: Building Stones for an understanding of the Mystery of Golgotha by Rudolf Steiner
The Spiritual Science of Rudolf Steiner is full of insights and explanations for things that the written dogma of various churches have little explanations for. Ask for an explanation, and you get a platitude instead. Ask for
evidence, and there is none available, so you are admonished to accept it on “faith” if you are to be a good Christian. Soon you get the impression that the church person you’re talking to thinks that something is “wrong” with you because of your questions. This reminds me of the wonderful story by Raymond Smullyen, “Planet Without Laughter”. On this planet everyone was serious and no one ever joked or laughed. Almost no one. There were a few strange ones who occasionally laughed and joked. They were called “laughers” and were promptly hospitalized. They were “treated” by injecting them with a drug that caused intense pain which caused them to scream constantly, and this cured the laughter. That something similar will happen in about 4,000 years to those who find their truths in Spiritual Science is no laughing matter.
[page 91] People imagine that those who strive to arrive at the truth by means of Spiritual Science can be met with the weapons of scorn and ridicule that often pass for criticism. In the Sixth epoch they will be treated medically!Read the Review at:

Our hits are averaging about ten times the number of unique visitors. A unique visitor is defined by our collection agent, Urchin, as a visitor who reads at least one page, leaves the website, and doesn't return for at least 20 minutes.

My reviews are not intended to replace the purchasing and reading of the reviewed books, but rather to supplant a previous reading or to spur a new reading of your own copy. What I endeavor to do in most of my reviews is to impart a sufficient amount of information to get the reader comfortable with the book so that they will want to read it for themselves. My Rudolf Steiner reviews are more detailed and my intention is bring his work to a new century of readers by converting his amazing insights into modern language and concepts.
