Dear Friends,
I stumbled across this website by PJ Eby in which he discusses
doyletics. Mostly he praises it, but there are a couple of potential
misconceptions in what he writes upon which I would like to set the
record straight. So far as I know, he's never written me, read the
doyletics website, and is not a member of this list. I did post a
comment on his website awhile back, but he never contacted me
afterward. If I'm wrong on any of these points, will someone please
clarify for me.
The website is linked above and the doyletics comments are on that page
as of this day.
Point 1: EBY WRITES: "But it's interesting because it does suggest that
removing a doyletic imprint is potentially a rather dangerous business.
After all, what if I had done it with something pleasurable? If the
same principles apply, that would be a very bad thing."
First it is not dangerous to remove a good doyle; doing so will not hurt
anyone. You will scarcely miss it even if you did.
Second, and most important, good doyles are more robust than bad ones
because good ones happen more often, whereas bad events tend to
happen seldom so are easily traced away with one speed trace. I know
of no cases of someone tracing away a good or pleasurable doylic
memory, and I cannot think of a reason why. If someone were intent on
doing it and were successful, why should they complain by getting what
they sought? It's moot point, but not worth debating, so far as I am
concerned.
Point 2: "In particular, if you can actually remember a childhood event
as the source of an issue, it's not a doyle"
First: Eby never talks about the Memory Transition Age (5 years old),
which makes me think he never read about it, and without mentioning
whether the event is before or after the age of 5, his statement if
not meaningful, doyletically speaking.
Second: In the theory of doyletics, it specifies clearly the hypothesis
that cognitive memories begin storing as early as 3 years old and that
by age 5 and thereafter only cognitive memories are stored. So, in a
decision whether to do a speed trace on an event between 3 and 5, my
answer is "dirt simple": When in Doubt, Trace it Out! Ask your body if
this is a doyle, don't take the word of someone's blog. I know from
personal experience and recently of a person who remembered a pre-5
event, but in doing the speed trace, the bad doyle went away. Apparently
her partial cognitive memory did NOT include the doylic event.
If any of you stumble upon a website mentioning doyletics, please let me
know privately and I'll check it out. When I discovered George
Parigian's website recommending doyletics, he and I got in a good
conversation and he utilized all the changes I suggested to make a
splendid presentation of doyletics.
His website is:

One website, "easychangeworks", was not amenable to my suggestions, and
they are spreading misconceptions with their partial and incorrect
presentation of doyletics. I do not recommend anyone go there.
In general, watch out for websites selling things. They are like the
tour guide companies in New Orleans who for a price will tell their
customers all about the city, but leave out mention of the best free
trip in town: the Canal Street ferry, upon which one can ride over the
great Mississippi River, only a few feet above the water (you can feel
the cool air and inhale the wonderful aroma of the riverwater). But they
can't make money telling about a free trip, so they stuff people in
their buses where they will never smell the river or feel the cooling
river breezes. So, as always, caveat emptor.
most cordially,
Bobby
