For the record, the purpose of that section was to review research on "Transcendental Meditation" so the omission of published research on TM between 1986 and 2004 without any mention at all is relevant to the topic of bias on the part of the people who wrote the paper: they were obviously exceedingly biased in what they included or excluded on the topic of TM. That you're not willing to concede this point only points out the Fox News nature of your reportage. Lawson
