Unbelievable. Apparently she thinks this because Tim Guy makes a couple of the same points you have. Of course, there couldn't possibly be *two* people who have looked at the research in question and come to the same conclusions independently, now, could there? An interesting feature of the discussion, BTW, is that while Vaj accuses Tim Guy of <horrors> being a TMer (and therefore incapable of either honesty or objectivity), Vaj fails to identify himself as a former TMer-turned-TM-critic, leaving the highly misleading impression that he is simply an independent outside observer with no axe to grind. This is particularly ironic when he makes one claim after another about how TM research has been conclusively debunked, when the *most* that can be said is that some of it has been called in question. Also fascinating that, as Tim Guy points out, Vaj confuses the hypotheses about EEG coherence with the ME hypothesis--and Ruth actually backs Vaj up!
