While Susan's idea is noble, I doubt that many would take advantage of it. Most have moved on, and wouldn't really want to participate. If you couldn't get people to go there to bounce on their butts by paying them, you're not going to be able to do it by saying, "Come back to the dome, Little Sheba...all is forgiven." Most people know that there is absolutely nothing that they need to be forgiven *for*. > With all due respect Susan, how can you be so sure > about that?

Do you really want to be part > of such an experiment ? But here's one half of the real problem. Asshole elitists like Nabby and the other TBs who are so terrified of picking up Off The Program Cooties that they'd be afraid to be in the same room with someone who has done nothing more than visit the *same* saints they've visited, but kept hidden. The other half -- not to be forgotten IMO -- is that there is and has always been an subconscious desire to *sabotague* the "dome numbers" to make sure that no real test of the ME theory was ever possible. As long as the TBs can claim that "We didn't make the numbers...no wonder nothing happened," they can continue to believe that if they *had* "made the numbers" something would have. I think most of us here know that nothing would. If the TMO had *ever* really wanted to actually "prove" their ME theory, they had the money 100X over to make it happen. They could have spent a mere fraction of their wealth, sponsored a huge FREE course, and tried to get everyone to come. Then they could have opened up the "science" to independent, non-biased researchers and offered them a chance to do parallel experiments to the biased, foregone-conclusion TM researchers' experiments. This never happened, and I believe that a huge reason why it never did is that no one WANTED it to happen. Maharishi certainly didn't, accord- to the Kaplans and others who reported what he said in private. And the TMO honchos don't want it to happen, because if it "goes wrong" and absolutely NOTHING happens to crime statistics or weather or all the other things they'd claim "should" be affected, the last hangers-on in the TM movement would finally beat feet, the movement would dissolve, and they'd actually have to work for a living. "Achieving the dome numbers" is never going to happen. It won't happen because a small cadre of TM TBs wants to keep things all to themselves, without any Cooties around, and because the people in charge don't want the ME ever really put to the test.
