As for me, I don't have the time or patience to deal with FFL
management beyond what I'm doing right now. My beloved has been in
poor health for the past year, and my days are filled with her pain
and discomfort. She is so dependent on me being in Fairfield that I
haven't traveled east to see my 87 year old father since last
September, and I don't know if I'll ever see him again. And, now, my
own low-grade infection, that had been kept well in check for 11+
years, is staging a major comeback. There is simply enough stress and
unpleasantness in my own life that I refuse to tackle the inane
bullshit that goes on here.

Sorry to hear all of this, Alex, and as I've said before, thanks for
handling the thankless task of trying to manage this place as well as
you always have. I know that there is not much you can do when faced
with someone as psychotic and as unresponsive as Richard Williams. For
all we know, if you were to revoke his posting rights, he's so insane
that he might do what Ravi and others have done and just try to create
new IDs so he could continue to harass the people here, and you as
moderator. Dealing with people like this is a lose-lose situation,
which is why I and some others who have spoken up lately have chosen
not to interact with him at all, ever again.
I guess the thing that bothers me the most, still having a tiny bit of
affection for my days involved with TM, is how a discussion group
about it could devolve into the "inane bullshit" that you so
accurately describe it having become. What HAPPENED to all of these
once-intelligent people to make them so petty, so vindictive, so
irrational, and so attached to their beliefs or to the people who sold
them those beliefs?
If FFL continues as it is, many people will probably bail, because
after all there is just so much inane bullshit one can take in a
lifetime. The only good thing I see coming out of that is that any
prospective newbies wondering whether TM might be right for them and
coming to Fairfield Life to find out will probably run away screaming
within a few days, and thus never fall prey to all the cult madness.
In that sense, True Believers like Nabby and JR and Share and True
Psychopaths like Richard Williams may actually be performing a service.

OH GOD - WILL IT EVER END? It's all about what's-his'name.
P.S. Get a clue, Barry - Alex doesn't want to discuss your petty ego
problem with a chat room discussion group.
