If he had told me in a conversation on the street that he would like to quit TM, but could not because he was an addict (I think that is a fair representation of what he said in an old post on this list -- he could say if he does not), I would not have made this comment. But LB has made such a post on this list a while back, so I consider his attitude toward TM (and its possible connection to his questioning attitude toward other aspects of Vedic knowledge) to be fair game. Actually I believe MMY has commented that it's a sign of the validity and efficacy of TM that one enjoys the practice so much that not doing it is an unpleasant experience, so "we just don't mind."
