I read an interview by Mitch and he was pretty explicit that he just
saw no point to the course and packed up his stuff and walked to the 
train station. I am not sure that translated into his being anti-tm.
just anti that course. I was on that course, and I was a bit
disappointed myself at times. The course seemed pretty looose and
experimental. 

And as I recall, his departure was pretty abrupt. Word came the next
morning that he had just up and left.  And I don't remember him
complaining about severe headaches when M. was there, in group
meetings etc. 

If it was a mutual agreement sort of thing, then it would seem it
would have been less abrupt, some good byes, a car to take him to the
train station, etc. Not a hasty, silent, late night exit.
