I never claimed it was my "standard" as you falsely imply, merely that it's not hearsay, i.e. unsubstantiated rumor. We have an actual person, giving actual verbal testimony of Mahesh boning her. And of course there are others. Regarding TM benefits published in newspapers, benefits merely being published in newspapers is NOT my standard for scientific research and scientific veracity, nor would I hope it would be yours. But thanks for the non sequitur. ;-)
