Thanks Barry - I am gonna read what you have written and if I have any
questions after that, I'll send 'em.
Got a busy day today, but I intend to start reading it later tonight.

I don't mind, as long as you
understand a few things at the outset. First, I rarely even
think about the dude any more, except when something
triggers a memory, as something you said in one of your
posts did yesterday. Second, I don't waste my time
either condemning or defending him -- he was what he was,
and I don't much care what anyone thinks about him.
Third, however, and as you say, if we do it here you can
expect a lot of "piling on" from stalkers here.
They'll do it for various reasons. Some will start
piling on when they hear tales of thousands of his students
witnessing siddhis they've *still* only read about,
after 30 years of pursuing them and after paying thousands
of dollars to supposedly learn them. Some will pile on
because they don't like me, and they mistakenly believe
that if they diss a former teacher I still have some
positive feelings about, it'll push my hot buttons the
same way me saying things about MMY pushes theirs, and thus
I'll react and get into one of the Robin-like
"confrontations" with them they so hope for.
That's not gonna happen, so we might as well do it here.
:-) But I'll warn you ahead of time that my attention
span for "things Rama-related" is pretty damned
short these days, so if you have questions, make the first
few "count," because at some point I'll get
tired of the whole thing and bail. :-)
That said, ask anything you want, and I'll do my best to
answer your questions as honestly as I wrote "Road Trip
Mind." That would be a good place to start if you are
actually curious about the dude. I wrote it to get the
Rama-monkey off my back, and it worked. I don't actually
have a great deal more to say about the guy than I said in
that book.
