Trust me, there are enough suckers in the world. People can be convinced to do anything stupid or as Scott Adams said, otherwise we wouldn't have suicide bombers. <strong>Confused</strong>, no one reads you? Yeah, right! Now someone is fishing for compliments. Bongo, you seem to have the right skills for a successful career in Vastu. Trust me, there are enough suckers in the world.

Can't you put some extra negative energy at the doorstep ? Since like polarity repels, it will repel any other negative energy that tries to sneak in. (Hey - maybe I should go into Vastu ;-) ) The people who fall for this are the same who are filling up the coffers of IIPM by enrolling there. Sigh ! What next, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feng_shui" rel="nofollow">Feng Shui</a> websites !?

I would also like to know which university awarded her degrees in vastu because she is clearly overstepping its application. Vastu has a limited application for construction (mind you, I am not saying architecture here) and should be restricted to thus. I am not sure if architects brought up Vastu but lot of them have resorted to using it to avoid losing superstitious clients. <strong>Abhishek</strong>, I would take her PhD claims with a pinch of salt. I would sure like to know how her research in Vastu, if at all relates to computer science. Anu, the claims are so weird that they are simply beyond wrong let alone reason.

The most ridiculous thing I have heard so far. Yet, why should it surprise me? Modern science and technology only seems to give the unscrupulous, more sophisticated ways to deceive the gullible! Qualified science? Bah! Which recognised university is offering degrees in vaastu?? None I am sure! I would like to ask that lady who awarded her degrees! Btw, do you have any basis for saying that architects dug up and brought out vaastu? Or did you write it as a joke? If the former, they have a lot to answer for! Webvaastu?

I say, let them build a website according to <strong>vastu</strong> principles, holding the content and business model constant and then subject it to the test whether it succeeds or not.

Standard pseudoscience strategy.
