For the record, the reason I specified a *date*, of course, was to indicate when the policy *changed*. We all know in the early years Yogic Flying was promoted deceptively. My point was that it hasn't been since the mid-'80s (Lawson says 1986), not that it never was. (I don't think it was even called Yogic Flying until they started holding the public demonstrations, the phrase having been invented to evoke the "three stages" notion so it could be explained that practitioners had achieved only the first stage.) ------------------------ Yahoo!
