I thought this article in Slate.com would interest you. I am not at all of the same playing field as you and Sarah are when it comes to web 2.0/social networking/et al, but I try to keep up in my own little way. I am intertested in what you think of this article.

Is there a better way for me to get this to you? In other wirds, I found it in my Google reader, but I don’t have your email address, so this was the only way I could figure out how to get it to you. Any advice?

@terrie, yeah I forgot about the Shamu article. I should have linked to that. I’d love to have an animal trainer work me toward better habits.

You might like the article, What Shamu Taught Me About a Happy Marriage. The author, Amy Sutherland, has just released a new book about using positive reinforcement techniques used in animal training with people.

I think some people dislike these kind of tricks or mind hacks because they smack of being manipulated. But I think it’s great to be manipulated into being happier!

Good ideas, T.
