UPDATE: Andrew Wilson in this debate is a perfect example of how not to talk. He is the opposite of what FIML teaches. FIML was designed to prevent the kind of speaking and listening Wilson does in this discussion. He is using language dishonestly; to perform rather than learn, to dominate rather than understand, to evade when he cannot answer, etc. He is a glaring example of something many humans are prone to and all of us suffer from. It is a sign of our time that anyone would hire Wilson to teach anything to do with language. Or pay him to speak with Candace, who uses language masterfully. As for Candace, public speaking is not the same as interpersonal communication. I am 100% certain that even she would greatly benefit from FIML practice. Since she clearly understands language very well, I am sure she would take to FIML quickly and love it. Anyone who can see what FIML does and why it is necessary, will be able to learn the technique rapidly and benefit from it almost immediately. ABN
