http://www.mum.edu/admin/trustees.html I think someone just pulled content from there to make the phony FB page. I just read your post and the Bevan post at the FB page. It must have been someone who is really up on Bevan's role, or else did very thorough research, because the last sentence in the Bio was changed from He is Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees to He is the Emeritus Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Maharishi University of Management. How many TMers and ex-TMers would make that change to the Bio or even know to make that change?

Re: [FairfieldLife] Facebook Question
Sure, if someone wants to set up a dozen different accounts, all he needs is a dozen different email addresses. He can put any name on any account and any pic he can upload as a profile pic, though Facebook does not approve of copyright infringement. One way to try to protect against it is to adjust the account privacy settings so that fewer people can see the friend list. The options are: 'Everyone', 'Friends of Friends', 'Friends Only', and 'Customize'. Customize allows one to enter names or a list of names in either a 'Make this visible to' list, or a 'Hide this from' list, or both. For instance, if you were the person concerned and you restricted your friend list to 'Friends Only', then I would still have access to your friend list and Rory would still have access to your friend list, because we are friends, but if LB were not one of your friends, then he would not be able to view your friend list. Some detective work can get around the restriction to some degree, like if the perpetrator looked at my profile, he would be able to see we are friends and add me to the list of people he wants to try to fool into thinking he is you...he would be able to see we are friends if he browses through my friend list because I open my friend list to eveeryone.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Facebook Question
I got a notification that Rick was now friends with Bevan Morris and was a little surprised to see Bevan on Facebook, but not too much, since it's so ubiquitous these days. It did not even cross my mind that this was a union of ultra-TB and OTP.
