I don't know if this article has ever been shared here, but I just found it: 

http://www.slate.com/Default.aspx?id=2112734

Just curious about everyone's opinion on the article. It seems to me that the polygrapher basically knew he'd probably take the money, etc. Also sounds like the guy use the sphincter technique way too intensely. Anyway, share your two cents (you too George, since he said he spoke with you). Thanks guys!

(hope i didnt break any rules by posting that link!)

1) The author of this article, Emily Yoffe, is a she, not a he.

2) Yoffe did not speak with me, and nowhere in the article does she actually claim to have done so. Rather, she speaks only of having "consulted" AntiPolygraph.org (as one might "consult" a dictionary).

3) You broke no rule of this message board by posting this link. For past discussion of Yoffe's article, see Can I Beat a Lie Detector? - MSN Slate Article.
