I knew about the Robin Carlson ones. I think that someone tried to serve him at Livingston Manor once too. I remember Charlie's story about sitting in for Maharishi in a case too. The court thought he was "Mr. Yogi", and he testified. I also remember someone who took the siddhi's suing and winning a judgement. There are likely others that we haven't heard about. MMY came into the country very quietly the last few times he was here, from what I remember. JohnY ------------------------ Yahoo!
