Certainly - I have pretty much gobbled up almost everything- the wave; adventures; regular SOTT reader of all the features; bought and read the Secret History download; read all the Gurdjieff books (some more than once); Mouravieff too. Pretty much aligned and collinear with it all. I really appreciate Laura's multi-level approach to reality and connecting the dots; the fact we have to sort through the wheat and chaff to find what is true (or should I say 'sort through the organic uncured bacon and big macs'?)
I recognized at an early age that something was not right with the world - that it is full of lies; bizarre dreams; trouble socializing; grew up with the suppression of the 50's; remember the pit in my gut the day JFK was assassinated; rebelled in a big way; was subjected to the CIA ready availability of drugs in the 60's; was conscripted for the Vietnam debacle and refused to go (long story/MAJOR test); my life turned around at 21: I realized I was unconsciously on a very destructive default STS path and Werner Erhard's Est training really helped me at the time become aware of my personal irresponsibility and a lot of my unconscious beliefs and assumptions. Played music semi-proffesionally for about 15 years.
Was a travel agent and was able to see a lot of the world (before the age of mass tourism) and this widened and changed my perspective greatly. Married/4 kids with all the learning that entails. Lived 10 years in the multi-cultural melting pot that is Hawaii - tons of lessons there too.
So, bottom line: it is time to come out of the woodwork and try to give back; get in the game and contribute. Lastly, thank you and I thank Laura for all her hard work and insightfulness that has been shared.

Some of her songs also gave me that nostalgic feeling as a child... until today.
