I lived in a TM community for nine months back in
1994-95, the one in the Berkeley-Carteret Hotel in
Asbury Park.  I've written about the experience
extensively, including on this forum, so Barry is
well aware of that fact.

Never once did I experience any "fear" over what
the TMO might "do to me."

Oh, and I was a regular participant on alt.m.t
throughout that period.
