I got a good laugh out of this, especially your comment, "Since the advent of Stapathya Veda the place reminds me of a Madame > Blavatsky convention, a bunch of aged dour looking people." Have you been to Annapurna dining hall recently, Anon? I think you might be surprised at what you find there -- that is, if you're not so stuck in your preconceptions that nothing real can register with you. And I can't really believe that you are regretful about the demise of the old Learning Center, which must rank as one of the worst buildings ever constructed. The new student center is going to be terrific. Stick around, you might even like it.
