I don't think that was the atttude of the tmo - their attitude was 'we did this study which proves our case, now give us a $billion in public funds to support levitators or maybe hindu priests'. Actually I remember being befuddled at the end of the course when MMY on the teleconference had no interest in talking about the courese and its effect at all - he had some huckster from south america with him and a plan for sidhas to move to brazil to become farmers. There was the slogan '40 hectares for world peace" or something like that. It was really disappointing to me after so many of us interrupted their lives to do the course and try to prove the ME once and for all. ------------------------ Yahoo!
