it works
http://www.clarus.com
“I’m 66 years old and was given a gift by a friend of mine. It was the Q-Link that was supposed to give me More energy for all my hobbies, tennis, gym and grandchildren. Also I didn’t fully believe in it. I told myself “why not wear it and see.” To my great surprise and skepticism, I found that I had become More energetic, More centered than I had ever felt before. It was truly a great gift and now I wear it with confidence and like to share that recognition with many others. I still don’t understand how it works, but I can always tell the difference when I don’t wear it (More tired) then put it back on again (More energy and enjoy my life More) so I know it really does work. Just thought I’d share my experience with you.”
Warning: Side effects may include always spelling ‘More’ with a capital M, resulting in More subliminal messaging and More testimonials from More satisfied customers.
This reminds me of those magnetized bracelets that used to be sold to do wonderful things to your whole life just by having one on. And this, like your perfect chair, seems to be the same thing - just having one on.

It must work. I mean, they couldn’t put it on the internet if it wasn’t real, could they?
Or maybe he has “More” energy because he believes he has more energy? Self-fullfilling prophesy?
I smell a placebo effect.
'course not!! Perish the thought!
Everything on the internet is true!
just ask these guys ![]()

They forgot to mention that the Q link makes you a better whislter, flute player and/or piper

Yeah, and it also gives you more vivid dreams and delusions of grandure… ![]()
Note* The Q link does not help with spelling. Hence Whistler became Whislter
That was a pretty hard slam on lixnaw, skepticism or not. It seemed like a sincere post. Scares me off if I have something wonderful, but dubious sounding, to share.

… even with “brain-washing” in the thread title?
thanks Tony and Dubh, i don’t mind the slagging at all. the main thing is that it works. i tried it out a minute before i bought it.
and some board members might try this hanger out in deep secret ![]()
The chair wedge works . . . that’s not controversial at all. If you’ve got the usual office chair . . . you NEED a wedge.
I checked the Wedge out. At $80 its nothing more than a $2 piece of foam rubber that squashed absolutely flat and did nothing at all for me. Gimme kapok anytime. ![]()

I too thought this was a joke and didn’t equate it with the chair wedge which seems a reasonable thing to me, even if it doesn’t work for everyone. I think lixnaw has a funny title because he knew it would sound funny to many people—so some jokes seemed expected. And if it works for lixnaw, hey, I won’t argue with that! Keep us posted.
TonyHiggins, if you posted something and you sounded very serious I think a lot of people would be sensitive to that. If it really sounded strange, you could emphasize that you realize that but that it works for you. It is hard to get the right idea across in print, that’s for sure.

Really? It squished, did it? Hmmm, well, I was speaking about generic foam wedges anyway. The wedge concept, I think, was my emphasis. Wedges in general, wedges of a variety of materials.
You’re correct that the memory foams squish out.
You can’t beat kapok, I’ll agree. One of nature’s finest fluffs. Well, wool would possibly do it. You know, a nice wool-stuffed wedge would be very pleasant.

I am More skeptical the More I read about it.
But if it works for you, More power to your elbow ![]()

Hi Cynth, you’re quite right. We each read the thing very differently. I admit that when I read the replies, I went back and reread the thing to see if lixnaw was joking and thought, hey, he/she’s serious. That’s when I felt bad about the replies. Anyway, I do have a thin skin; hoped I’d get thicker as I got older, but such has not happened. Also, living where I do, I’m exposed to a lot of radical ideas and beliefs and you learn to accept that whatever people tell you, it may be very real to them. I’ll further admit I’d be curious to check out that device just to see…
And conversing with my son, who’s studying physics at UC Berkeley, we often laugh about the nature and perception and descriptions of reality, whatever that is.
And before you knock placebos, I heard years ago that there was a 6 month powerful placebo effect to unnecessary surgeries. People feel greatly improved even if the surgery is unrelated to the condition: ie, an organ was removed just to see if it would help. The longer I work in western health care (RN), the more it scares me. Peace.

i’m not trying to less anything, nor have i any shares in the profit.
i just want to share what works for me, and maybe make others happy.
and as for the wedge pillow, i don’t believe it can be squashed, it takes some time getting used to…
i don’t need any skeptical scientists to tell my what’s right or wrong. i can trust myself ![]()
with or without the Qlink,we’re all different and all have a different path in life,
all have to struggle sometimes and therefore deserve the same respect.
