Merle,

Making a disgrace does not mean you are to be chucked.  It just means that 
you've cheapened us all by demeaning a stranger who happens to be a respected 
Master teacher of the Diamond Sangha.  I'm sorry that Edgar and Mike 
"bought-into" your 120 dollar figure as a fee for dharma teaching.  Sheesh, 
what a trashy legacy you've left.

And your joking about sex with the psychiatrist.  SO poor.

Whatever you're drinking, none for me, OK?!

Ask Mike about the Diamond Sangha.  It may be new to him, still, though.

See their Ethics Statement, adopted in year 1999.  A fine document.  Prompted 
by perceived mis-behavior of a teacher in their/our line, from Tasmania, now 
gone independent in California.

--J.

PS  Bill! is co-moderator, don't fergit.
