Hi Glen Well said and I agree. My objective was to apply English 101 standards to Dennis' sentences and paragraphs and I have achieved that with the Kindle version. Someone else can delete the Scientology references if they choose. You make the important point that If TROM is to grow then people who understand it will do research based on a TROM foundation and report the results. Dennis proposes using TROM to keep the body alive I definitely is possible. Also if mass is generated by games play and composed only of postulates then how can we make new mass or delete old mass at will?
