Back in the late 90's I took IMPACT, and several years
later, while in grad school, I used the verbal techniques to stop a verbal
attack from escalating into a physical one. I called Martha then and let
her know. Today, I used the same techniques to get rid of a man in the
post office parking lot who blocked my car with his while trying to force
literature on me and making inappropriate comments about my vote, all assumed
of course, I had never spoken with him. Worked like a charm. I am
delighted to tell you that it was like having a can of psychic Asshole-Away.
Even in broad daylight, I was delighted to have this great tool to use.
Knowing the language and the right attitude meant that while he was
mostly harmless, but still inappropriate, he didn't have the power to
intimidate me. And, while he still tried the same thing once after I told
him to go away, I saw his face change after I did that, it registered that he
wasn't having the effect he wanted to have. Thank you for that!
