are there text archives of these at some central location on the net? that don't require **cough** monetary subscriptions **cough**?

I've heard about these weird new things called torrents or free music downloading programs that the crazy criminal degenerates of our society use. I've never EVER used them, and I would NEVER suggest the use of them, so whatever you do, DON'T download BitTorrent or Limewire!!! My friend who spent a night in jail told me that all of the inmates found BitTorrent better and easier to use because you can find huge libraries of material such as the essential NLP library using a simple search engine such as google. He told me all of this blasphemous information I tried to ignore, like type in the title and author of what you're searching for and add the word "torrent" afterwards and tons of websites that I've never visited before come up with what you're looking for.

I feel so dirty even talking about such things, now I must take a shower and go to church...

anyone know where i can get this without having to buy all the cd's and shit that comes with it? i cant find it at the library or any bookstores and i cant buy it online without my parents being like "wtf is this? what do you need this for?" then i find myself in an akward position.

recommendation:
the definitive book of body language by allan and barbara pease

style mentioned it in The Game and i started reading it, anyway i found it interesting and insightful

"Why sex is Fun?" by Jared Diamond

It explains why humans really have an strange sexuality, we are the wierd ones in many ways. Its not really about PU but it helps to know how things work. I plan to post a thread about the book soon. Some kickass stuff can be derived from there.

This books sucks, take from me. Perhaps sucks is too strong a word. It is difficult to come up with a formulaic approach to non-verbal communication. While there are certain good rules to go by--such as good eye contact, good posture, firm handshake, etc--most things have a great deal of context that need to be applied to it. While Pease acknowledges this, he doesn't seem to take it to heart.

Non-verbal communication is powerful BECAUSE it is unspoken and because the messages it sends are CLEAR. Just be honest with yourself about the vibes you get from other people to read good body language. On top of that, simply be aware of what people are doing with their body in social situations. To improve your own body language, just follow some very general rules (don't fidget, maintain good eye contact, maintain an open stance, and take up a lot of space). Outside of this, simply work on self confidence and the so-called "inner game" and the signals that you send will come naturally.

Just remember, body language is a communication medium that is RECEIVER oriented. In other words, humans have developed the capacity to READ these subtle cues unconsciously. If their readings were poor, then they are less likely to be selected evolutionarily. You can trust in your own, as well as other people's, natural capabilities to a very high degree.

I'd be interested to know christopherphillip's thoughts on this, as he seems to be the resident body language expert around here.
