"TM is very popular in Glasgow and the teacher there makes a good living from it. Edinburgh TM are doing well" This seems to be a discrepancy when compared to your earlier post of: "but nobody new seems to be joining the hardcore movement...I can't believe newbies aren't having the sort experiences they want to expand on." Does this mean the Scots are just doing TM, but not going on to TMSP? Partly. The TMSP isn't anywhere near as popular as it used to be, there used to be two courses a year in the UK, you'll be lucky if there's one now. But mostly I meant that people don't come back to the centres to learn more even if they really like TM, and especially that they don't want to get involved in running it or moving to Skem etc. The hardcore movement is just getting older with no newbies coming in. I wonder whether they are being put off or that sort of thing just isn't popular anymore. The last intro tape I saw was truly appalling though and would have put me off TM even, some demented TB woman going on and on about the ME and yagyas, the whole thing before they even learned basic TM! We used to be smart enough to keep the crazy bullshit secret until they had been reeled in a bit. But then all that stuff is available to find out on the net so maybe they think it's better to be upfront about it. It's the first place people go for everything after all....

LOL, you really don't like it do you! Here's the news, TM is very popular in Glasgow and the teacher there makes a good living from it. Edinburgh TM are doing well and are building a vastu centre. There is already one of those in Aberdeen (I think) which is my ancestral home. I love Scotland too but I hope they vote "No" because the chaos for both countries will be amazing and we'd be stuck with the Tory scum forever. They want a decent welfare state but there's only 4 million people there which won't raise enough taxes to pay for it without the massive bonus they've been getting from the English tax payer, and without the pound they will be in trouble as the Eurozone looks pretty much finished as usual and are unlikely to want another broke country to bail out. If I lived there I would probably vote "Yes" though, just to not be ruled by from 700 miles away by the shower of bastards we've got at the moment. This profound wisdom and practical move will of course be followed by Ireland and Wales after they declare independence from the Isle of Edward Longshanks and of course David Lynch will be prevented from ever coming to any of the three new countries. If he sneaks in he will be arrested and incarcerated. Any and all TM owned properties will be nationalized, sold and the the proceeds given to citizens who paid various amounts of money to learn TM, TMSP, go on courses and so on. When this happens and the word goes out, let's see how many of the TM faithful will remain faithful and how many want to put in a claim and get that fat purse. All written with the knowledge of how much Buck and his frens on FFL will love the post.

Now forget all the nonsense about whether the country will prosper by itself. The real question is: if the Scots create an independent country, will they no longer be considered Scorpions? As part of the UK were they originally considered Scorpions? Good question, I would say that us English were the scorpions because we probably took over Scotland and the other two and they've never really been happy about it. Feel free to like them but continue to dislike me if they vote yes. Or was Scorpionland just England proper, excluding Ireland, Scotland and Wales not to mention the Islands, or was it all just one big land of Scorpions? Mind you, the SAS will be nothing without the Scots, and it there was a lot of Welsh archers inflicting so much damage at Agincourt, so maybe you'd better keep hating all of us just in case...
