You are right it is dispiriting - that Marshy and the TM people used folks desire to better themselves to fuel an arrogant self-aggrandizing money making scheme and dash peoples dreams when they knew that had been had.

That someone could come from way behind [TM.org] and even win the race, like the 10 year old running this horse race winning against all odds. Like this: http://espn.go.com/horse-racing/story/_/id/9354076/deep-closing-calidoscopio-captures-Brooklyn It could happen again that TM too become culturally significant again, may be even against all odds. I hope it all works and I wish them well, even the Prime Minister.
