Uh...I know that's the party line, but I think the reason this whole topic has arisen is that a number of people suspect that the party line is a bunch of hooey, and that things don't quite work like that. And the *reason* they suspect this is because they have watched the people in the TM movement follow the above party line for 30-40 years without any discernible change in their shitty and uncaring behavior. :-) ------------------------ Yahoo!
