I wasn't rushing to "pile on;" I was pointing out that -- contrary to 
Judy's view -- IMO the critics *aren't* being intentionally 
dishonest. We're all doing the best we can with our ingrained blind-
spots.

God, Turq, I hope you don't really believe this. I couldn't care less 
one way or the other about prosperity fences or what MMY says about 
them. As I pointed out earlier, I just bought a house in FF with a 
SOUTH DOOR. The horror! :-)

On the other hand, if someone with such a fence *does* believe deeply 
in their properties, I suspect they will warp their reality fields in 
such a way as to manifest a fulfillment of their beliefs, as we all 
do with one thing or another :-)

Why does everyone think it's such a big deal that we have blind-
spots?
