However, non-verbal language clues includes much more than body language. It also includes such things as vocal rhythm, rate, and tone; when a person’s words are not congruent with their actions, etc…

Your article suggests a lack of true understanding of the issue and is bluntly unprofessional. 1. You categorically degrade well established research findings with nothing more than mere assertion.
You say ‘Body language’…” sure doesn’t make up 90% of the information a person communicates in conversation”, but then you do not support your assertion with anything. Are we to assume that just the power of your AWSOME opinion should have us disregard the results of research results based on an extremely powerful statistical analysis technique.

I am annoyed by people who write as if they are experts, but the most cursory review of their work indicates gross deficits in the most basic academic acumen.

In addition to a lack of any scientifically validated research in your ‘expertise’, your writing style is simply embarrassingly poor. It reveals a very weak educational foundation and a paraprofessional academic style that actually embarrasses you in the eyes of anyone who is educated at a mere undergraduate level.

I suggest you go to college and take any 101 level science class to at least learn to correct many of the obvious flaws of logical and scientific standards.

PS. Whenever you degrade other people’s ideas with personal attacks and stereotyped labeling, such as “self-appointed guru’s” you are committing one of the fundamental logical fallacies and reveal yourself as a person void of professional integrity and standards. True experts in any field of study only are critical of ideas and never make negative comments about people who we disagree with.
