Sorry, Barry, at that point was watching my post numbers. Which I got wrong anyway! And someone else, maybe Lawson, answered you fairly accurately.
AND I asked my Dome neighbor who's usually in the know only she wasn't (-: So, definitely not the numbers that used to happen. For one thing, way more expensive now. Anywaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay, I thought I knew but in asking a few people, realized I'm clueless about this too. Out of so many loops these days. I'm guessing around 30. In MVC to the north. Thanks for really cute cat picture and explanation. Yeah, FF is a funny old place now. So many retired TMers plus ex TMers plus young kids at MUM who think they're really attending David Lynch University (-: OTOH, I constantly run into people here that I've known for over 35 years and I really like that. As opposed to the anonymity of the DC area where I grew up. Plus the low cost of living is not to be sneezed at. Plus the safety of a small town. Like everywhere and everything and everybody, it has its pluses and minuses. ________________________________ From: turquoiseb <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, July 23, 2012 7:25 AM Subject: [FairfieldLife] Re: Recommendations of the new TM.org campaign -- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Share Long <sharelong60@...> wrote: > > > From: sparaig LEnglish5@... > > > >--- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "Buck" dhamiltony2k5@ wrote: > > > > > > Fairfield is fast becoming irrelevant to the new 'TM' as Fairfield continues > > > to show its 'vedic' pandits chanting Hindu-like mantras in mass and a > > > Fairfield community of TM.org sour old meditators who won't come to > > > the Domes to meditate.

Why do you say this, Lawson? I'm genuinely > curious. Share, I suspect that Lawson was being ironic, trying to suggest that Fairfield was just as big and bouncy and full of importance as ever, perhaps even more so now that Oprah's put it on the map. I have to suspect that Buck's view is closer to the mark, and that Fairfield, along with both the popularity and the liquidity of the TM movement, went POP! some time ago. It's just that it's taking many of its followers some time to realize this. Sorta like this cat: https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/224977_336816779725704_1684909762_n.jpg I noticed that you didn't answer my question about the number of people attending the latest TM Teacher Training Course that just started. Is it more than 20, or less than 20?
