On a different note, I saw this great video on YouTube talking about how our subconscious can be manipulated. Apparently Betty Crocker introduced the instant bake cake mix in the early 50s. It wasnt selling. A team of psychologist (not market researchers) were hired to conduct a study. It revealed that the housewives found the product convenient, but felt a sense of guilt short cutting the effort and love they would put into a made from scratch cake. So these clever f*#€¥s changed the instructions from just add water to adding an egg, taking full advantage of the female subconscious. The egg has long been a symbol of fertility, life and creation, therefore taking the guilt factor out the the mix. The cake mix took off and is still selling like hot cakes. Now thats either fictional crap or sheer brilliance.
