Why the Tangerine Technique?
Well, in the early days, way back in 1986 we had students put a variety of fruit on different points around the body, including watermelons, all to help folks find that point of awareness that aided reading.
Later that year, or maybe it was the next year, I flew to Boston for an introductory lecture on PhotoReading.
The plane circled and circled around Boston because of some delay. Soon I was teaching folks on the aiplane to PhotoRead. I didn't want to spend time going through the fruit basket, so I used just the tangerine--afterall, it has a distinct texture, smell, taste, color, and shape. Then someone asked something like, "Can you use the Tangerine Technique for..." And the name stuck.
