From your Blog and comment 1 - I would imagine that the secret really is "It's who you know, not what you know". Reading the website for The Secret, I would imagine that the secret really is - milk people's money while the source is hot - for now you can read the secret book, go to various flavours of secret seminars as well as download the secret movie. This item reminds me of one of the most requested TV clips from the CBC - they did a documentary about dieting - the clip said "Its success is completely based on your failure" or something like that. I think that if everyone thought positively, they would not all be millionaires - there will always be poor and/or middle class citizens. If there weren't any of these people, the secret would not be able to milk them for their last $4.95.

She was impressed that I was workin two jobs, doing well at my developer job with Enviro Canada and that Im a very talkative kinda guy at the same time she gave me her card "When you're applying next time, make sure you mention my name" And there ya have it!
