TSR, town super-radiance, that's the folks off-campus who might go to the domes, at the margin. Folks taking the stipend are down to a couple hundred, who take the stipend as 'paid meditators' to be in the domes regularly. About a thousand pundits depending. Some faculty and staff, and some hundreds of students at a given time. And some few hundred of TSR types who would go. That gets the number now. Exclude the 'pundit'/pujaris here on visas, & the TM-movement is down to some hundreds of folks.
