Of course, you may imagine an adverse effect.
A gentleman called me panic stricken one Monday morning. The Paraliminal Tape broke while listening on Saturday.
He said, "I've been stuck in a deep trance since then, and I can't get out."
I explained how it is not possible to be stuck in a trance because of a broken tape, and how people spend 90% of their day going in and out of trances.
He he was persistent, and he was obviously upset. I told him to put the telephone to his left ear, I spoke some hypno mumble jumble (all right, it was positive and supportive), counted backwards from three to one, and his demeanor instantly changed.
