OK. I agree that where there is smoke, there is not ALWAYs fire. But
there is a high probability that there is.

Well, tm has done wonders for your math skills. (1972-1966= 6).
I have done the same math as you (though more accurately :) ).Maybe
you missed the post. Ft Bliss and all.
But you are missing the point. If DOJ did most meditation techniques
from 1966-1970 -- four years,
1) that is only a small slice of what is available today and his
comments were referencing those available today.
2) IMO, if he was heavily into other medititions 66-70, then he would
have mentioned that, made reference to that, cited them, discussed
them, formally and informally at MIU in 73-75 when theings were free
and open. He made videos for two detailed psych /SCI courses that I
sat in on. Lots of side discussions occurred. If he had extensive
experience of other techniques, it was a ripe environment to bring
them up. Never a peep as far as I recall. Doesn't prove he wasn't a
med junkie 66-70 but to me is indicative that he was not.
3) Assume 10 prominent techniques avalable 66-70. Best case, thats
less than 5 months per technique. More likely 2-3 at best. Not a
comprehensive evaluation, IMO.
