Lordy gal, your obsession knows no bounds. Talk about seeing everything through Barry colored glasses!
No, my dear I was bringing attention to, for the second time, the chapter in D'Antonios' book that deals with Fairfield. Instead of spending yet another Sunday of your life obsessing over Barry why don't you do something that really will cause you to ponder....order the book from Amazon. You can get it for less than $10 since it's available used. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "authfriend" <jst...@...> wrote: > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "Joe" <geezerfreak@> wrote: > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "authfriend" <jstein@> wrote: > > > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, TurquoiseB <no_reply@> wrote: > > > <snip> > > > > The moment that the TMO rebranded its Purpose in > > > > terms of the Maharishi Effect, it declared in no uncertain > > > > terms that "We" were the Most Important People On The > > > > Planet, the only ones who could save it from impending > > > > doom and Kaliyuga Konsciousness.
