Perhaps all that had been tried behind the scenes with no avail. Then what? As I
speculated, perhaps the appearance of trying to take care of things was deemed more
important than honesty about not being able to take care of things.

Actually, plenty was done. Every time somebody brought up the explosions, M would say, " noise is not a barrier to meditation...." He went through the whole checking notes procedures regarding noise disturbing meditation. While the blasts were loud, they never were so frequent, in most places, that one could not settle into the transcendent. As I said by the middle of the second TTC in either late 71 or early 72 M just moved everybody to Fiuggi Italy.
