James,

I have not read or posted here on FFL for a while so it is not me 
you 
are talking about evidently.   I have my experience like everyone 
else 
with FF and I'm having great experiences, thanks for asking.

Nay James, these guys ain't crazy and don't need no consoling or 
consul-ling.  These guys are pretty clear in what they are saying 
and are beyond that.  
It's those other 
people who need that.  What a mess they are in.  

However, what you could do that might be better is offer moderation, 
mediation and may be reconciliation to a different end from where it 
is now.  What has been missing all along from their language `up 
there' entirely is anything towards reconciling how it has gone and 
where it might go with that.. Theirs is such an amazing moral self-
confidence (absorption) that is so different from how it has gone.  
There evidently has been a lot of bad behavior in the middle.   In 
the 
peace movement the process is called, `Truth and Reconciliation'.  
The double-speak with sweet truth, you might help them with that.  

People generally 
have a pretty good sense of what is right and mostly have voted with 
their feet when they look at it.  That is not being negative but 
recognizing what is what.   Seeing a .org not dead in the water but 
dog-paddling as if swimming?  It has been an amazing long squander.  
Matter of fact.

I watched a `large' donor of the TMO the other day implore, "what 
more 
can we do?"  "What more needs to be done?"   In a room full of 
TB'ers 
not a person could tell this powerful person that what also is 
needed 
is reconciliation in the meditating community with what has gone 
before and an insistence on social good-behavior as most people 
would 
recognize it: honest transparency.  The donors have an incredible 
amount of power and instead they give it away.  An irony there was 
that this 
powerful donor did say to the room, "you are not telling me the 
truth!" .  The donor just did not really know what to ask for and 
how to discern it.  Damn right they are not going to blurt it out 
but they don't see it either.  At that level they are all 
complicit.  It is 
international court material, like crime against humanity, for the 
opportunity squandered.  That is just a matter of fact.  What of the 
people who support it?  'Reconcile' them for a while if you have 
some time and want to do something useful.  

JGD,
-Doug from Iowa
