No, it's not. :oh

edited my last post. yup... i do believe manipulating electic fiends and water is psychic or at least scientific. and imo creating force fields is awesome too. it's the best protection against the most of the abilities mentioned above.

I have never heard about ability like that in RL before. All other abilities are at least somewhat popular in real life, right?

Of course, I don't believe anyone have abilities like those.

I was too lazy to quote fuyuzukis post but i wanted to add something to his explanation of advertisment manipulating our mind.
For example big drink companies always sell at least 2 "different" sorts of their drinks to the supermarkets, because most supermarkets request a label product and a cheap product. Most companies than sell them the same drink just with different packages and the price difference. That means in most supermarkets there is often a cheap version of the expensive label product which even contain the same ingredients, but due to the mind manipulation through advertisment most people think that the label product is much better althought the cheaper product is just the same thing only with a different package.
Than again there is direct mind manipulation. But first never trust an hypnotist. In my country there are many cases about people who went to hypnotists to get rid of fear or other stuff, but some of these hypnotist are that serious, they hypnote the people and then force those people to do whatever they want. Those hypnotist have already forced some people to do crimes for them and the hypnoted people would never notice what they were doing.
And i also wanted to add something about electricity control. That might not be a pschic thing but its still supernatural, there is even a russian guy who can use his body as a battery. He can't throw with thunderboltz but he can hold meat in his hand and use the electric energy to barbecue the meat.

i know everything u just posted. but there is a strong difference. advertisments do manipulate (such as making an awesome trailer for a game will manipulate u to want the game) but never to an extent as someone can forcefully manipulate you (with telepathy). then again... smart ppl with some practice can manipulate others with just their brilliance.

I don't think you as stupid. But you see, not everyone knows this kind of stuff. There are some rather goofy people around who have no clue what's the purpose of advertises and so forth.

As for forcefully manipulating, even that kind of marketing / advertising has existed, but that's no longer effective or best way of selling your product and therefore it is not used. Though it was quite blunt. I'm pretty sure you've all heard of door-to-door selling...

Bah, door-to-door selling...

Manipulation trough hypnosis... I guess that's possible, though I am not sure how far can hypnosis actually go.

That's one hell of great marketing trick, not to mention way to screw people over, totally.

Basically: It is just "normal" as any other water you pull out from well, but just played some marketing tricks and you sell it for same price as some of the restaurants most expensive wines...

Oh yeah, I started reading Psychic wanderer...
Just finished Evil Gaze part 3.

So far it's quite interesting, but I can't help but to think that it's partly due to the discussion we've had today..

Also Henry currently reminds me. I want to find a person to whom I can devote myself to <3
Haha.

Also, I'm expecting some serious moral dilemma - or something for this Nanase...
