ME: I am not making a case that she was deceptive or practiced. She was under the conditions of trance which means that unconscious shaping takes place. Wouldn't it be much cooler if it really was a different language rather than gibberish? This is a huge reinforcement incentive. I've heard many different levels of skill at this in the flying room. I am not discounting your experience of shock. That would be very surprising to hear Japanese people sounding like her. And it could be that she had seen one movie of people speaking Japanese under subtitles and her unconscious mind was playing it back. But there was a feeling in flying rooms that some people were speaking in different languages and that was a reinforcement that we were functioning from a deep trans-personal level.
