Is the 'brass' concerned with anyone who isn't a fund raising target? 'Grant' money is comming in from Howard Settle. Pandits had to actually show up this time. They taken the standard tack. Carrot and stick. The carrot - free siddhi's and $600/month. The stick - "you'll be replaced by pandits." It just took more 'real' work this time. A slightly better carrot, and a stick that only concerns the die-hards. Buildings are being rennovated, land is being bought. Any possible feedback from teachers has been eliminated by the recert program. The ME 'group' gives those who still have hope something to believe in, until the next plan. No one is learning TM... Business as usual. JohnY
