Thanks Howard, the article you've linked rather confirms the sense I had made of Steve's article - namely that the writer was under the thrall of Marc Gafni and he sounded like a manipulative guilt-tripping self-obsessed Jewish teenager.
Even worse, he's 55 years old and a guru.
Suzy, you are an absolute darling but go read that list again, spare a drop of compassion for the woman writing it and recognise she is shilling for her boyfriend.
Every one of those things from 1 to 10 are subtle putdowns for the reader - from a guru to his followers - accept enough of them and only Marc Gafni is left standing.
