Peters is a handwriting analyst. His method differs from that of graphology in that he channels the energy from the writing. He has demonstrated this on the TV shows, Entertainment Tonight, The View [1] and The Montel Williams Show. [6] He has also acted as consultant to the Smithsonian Institution. [1]
In 1979, Peters staged an elaborate April Fool's joke on Capital Radio's Sunday Soapbox, posing as a concerned listener who claimed the government planned to cancel the following two Thursdays to correct errors that had occurred due to switching the clocks back and forth every year to account for British Summer Time. Forty-eight hours had accumulated altogether, and under "Operation Parallax" the following two Thursdays would be cancelled and the calendar would jump from Wednesday to Friday. [7]
