Forums IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ PhotoReading, Memory Optimizer PhotoReading= 25,000 WPM... Comprehension = ??? WPM?

In the infomercial for PhotoReading Pete Bissonette (please excuse me if I didn't get the name exactly right) reads at 25,000+ WPM and answers questions right away after saying he had never read the book before.

The whole mind system is 5 steps... How in the world did he recall the answers just by PhotoReading and not completing any other step, nor by looking through the book again?

Is this a state I can acheive? Or was there a trick behind it?

Thanks

Pete is really REALLY good at it, and was able to do spontaneous activation. Don't expect to be able to do this for several years, if at all.

I remember reading that they are going to pull that exact scene out of the infomercial for that very reason. You can, however, see that when he reads that excersize and eating book that he does go back and super read later.

Sounds feesable. I really wish infomercials would stop with the antics. There really needs to be an "infomercial police." Have some organization put their logo on product infomercials that say nothing in the program is very misleading.

A simple gesture of saying "Do not expect to read at speeds like Pete... although you can expect to read like this individual, ---" and possibly air the 6 minute news cast of the anchorman learning to PhotoRead.

I myself ordered the video just to see another example on screen of how it was actually done. This 6 minute video/trailer was almost more enticing than seeing Pete do it.

It's like having Einstein (giving he was still alive) promote the college he went to and implying that anyone that went there could be as smart as him.

We're being conned, by a new found age of geniousess. No offence to Learning Strategies, because its the "in" thing. Everybody's doing it.

PhReading is very great, the best product I've seen on TV to date. But I *CAN* see where people get misguided into buying a program or product that they're not expecting.

Luckily I like what I've gotten so far.

I would like any of LearningStrategies opionion about this topic please!
