It's when you went over to the Rama Guy that you had to pay the big bucks. From what I've read, you guys had to fork over thousands of dollars just to be around Rama or to attend an advanced lecture out in the desert. How do you think Rama got that Lear Jet, Mercedes Benz and that fancy mansion up in Stony Brook? In addition to giving Rama one-third of your pay as a 'programmer', in order to be a deciple, according to your recent post, you even paid for all the posters and all the leaflets you had to pass out when you witnessed for Rama. Go figure. Wasn't it you that paid the rent for the hall when Rama turned it into 'golden light'? Why didn't you cash-in on all that 'gold' and bottle it? From what I'be read of your posts, you were pretty good at selling snake oil. LoL! 'Take Me For A Ride' Ten years inside the Rama cult by Mark Laxer http://www.ex-cult.org/Groups/Rama/
