The trick is though, to make the 'results' so utterly subjective
that there's no possibility for a claim of fraud. TV psychics,
fortune cookies, mutual funds, that sort of thing.

Now a diskette that lowers spreadsheet typos, or a mousepad that
improves accuracy of my clicks -- THAT I'd be willing to pay for!
