I drove from Milwaukee to Madison one weekend during Winter.   Easy it
wasn't.   Traffic to and fro that made the trip very unpleasant.  You must
be a lot more easygoing on the road than I am.

Hi Brian, 
Firstly, I see you made the cut.  May
I be the first to offer my heartfelt congratulations.
Many have tried, but few have succeeded~~glad to
see you're amongst the Chosen. :)

Now, on to your questions...firstly, don't believe
everything you read.  (Just out of curiosity, where
have you been reading about little old Fairfield?)  
Most of us former TMers are living here just fine
without the TMO.  Nobody in town gives any credence
to the east-facing loonies, and my suggestion is that
you don't either.  However, if you really are still 
into all the rules and regulations,
Vedic City would probably be a better fit.  No worries~~
it's just a mile away.

Bevan may still be officially president of MUM, but
nobody ever sees him and many wouldn't even 
recognize him.

I can't give any info on the Rajas because that's 
not exactly the crowd I hang with.  Undoubtedly
others know more.

As far as keeping people in line goes, I hear they 
are practically begging people to come to the Domes,
and even paying by the month.  I'm not sure what
line you're referring to, but nobody not closely 
involved with MUM pays much attention to what
goes on there.  We use their pool and steer 
clear of anything else.

I hope that answers some of your questions.
Why not visit and see how you like it?  There 
are some nice coffeehouses and it's an easy drive
to Iowa City, Chicago, Madison etc.

Would I get culture shock? I helped build the first dome and that was cool. 
Life was simple, and we were all on the same mission.

Now I read that my house has to face east, Bevan is still there, Larry Domash 
is long gone and there are lots of guys that paid a million bucks to wear a 
crown. What is up with thatkinda scary IMO.

So, my earnest question is..if I return, is there still the spirit of a 
cause for enlightenment and making the world a better place? Also have the 
gestapo gone away, or are they still a force to keep us in line?

Thanks in advance for any input, this is a big decision.

Hi All,

I may know some of you from 79-80 when I was there. I am thinking about moving 
back after 30 years.

Would I get culture shock? I helped build the first dome and that was cool. 
Life was simple, and we were all on the same mission.

Now I read that my house has to face east, Bevan is still there, Larry Domash 
is long gone and there are lots of guys that paid a million bucks to wear a 
crown. What is up with thatkinda scary IMO.

So, my earnest question is..if I return, is there still the spirit of a 
cause for enlightenment and making the world a better place? Also have the 
gestapo gone away, or are they still a force to keep us in line?

Thanks in advance for any input, this is a big decision.
