So the Global Peace Gov'ts take 2/3 of the profits while taking no risk -- simply by supplying building plans. And presumably such plans, being so magnificent, will provide the new "demand" for such facilities (that is, buyers will shift from purchasing regular housing and facilities that the builders could build on their own and opt for living in a peace community. With other peace people, some of whom wear funny hats and gowns.). Any marketing studies to support that premise? > And the amazing thing is that > it's happening, and everywhere! Uh huh. And where exactly is everywhere?

Yes, I guess the builers' trade journals all have front page stories on this. Well maybe in the next issue, because I find nothing so far. > * A second major push is to expand the pilot projects in Vedic agriculture to a global scale.

And this extensive demand for very high-priced organics was determined how? And assuming the M. Greenhouses are an innovation, and such greenhouses are actually profitable, what prevents other players from entering the market to soak up that demand? Why would an investor partner up with the TMO and give away 1/2 or 2/3's of thier profits? What propriatory knowledge does the TMO bring to the table here? >The Brazilian Maharishi Vedic Organic Honey > project is also going very well.

And how many have signed up, and committed real funds? I wish them the best, but things seem a pie-in-the-sky, pipe-dream thinking at this point.
