Well I, for one, appreciate your contributions, your sense of humour, your spunk and who the hell cares if you're enlightened, schizophrenic, bipolar, have had a lobotomy, are Einstein incarnate or are Mr Ed? Frankly, I don't give a damn. You are who you are. You can call or think yourself whatever you like. Labels mean very little to me. Especially labels that are impossible to prove. Saying you are enlightened doesn't make you a laughing stock, it doesn't mean you have to be a genius, it doesn't mean you are a millionaire or better than anyone else and yet some here take such UMBRAGE at this small self-proclaimed factoid. And many here who hate this idea about you are the very ones who claim TM and anything else that smacks of cult or true belief is rubbish. You would think that those who have 'moved on' from these things wouldn't care one way or another since to them it is all a huge waste of time and all one big lie anyway. Obviously, those that are most vitriolic when it comes to you Doc, are those with some sort of past history or ax to grind. Since that was all before my time here I will just take you for what I see and say, "Carry on, wave your freak flag of enlightenment, it becomes you."
