Hey Babalouji,
I still go back and forth on the YP topic. I see them being targeted, I see M's daughters heavily involved, the slick way they are not mentioning him until later, just a party atmosphere...and I think they will probably catch at least the same kind of person I was then...wide eyed, idealistic, co-dependent, looking for a charismatic father figure, wanting someone to like me, etc...But then I think of the 20-somethings I know now who are so savvy, so alternative and so in-your-face cool, and I think they would see right thru it. I guess it is no different than before, except the marketing. The victims are still the same cross-section of humanity, wandering around the planet, trying to figure out what to do here. Can't quite fit into the corporate greed culture... : )
There was another three day event in Miami in the spring of 2003 that I attended. There was a good size crowd but, again, dwindling. The biggest space was this huge 'sales' area, EV contribution/information tables, Visions sales of tons of stuff.
On an off topic note, last night while I was posting here I flipped on the TV and the first image I see is Michael Nourri stabbing a woman to death...on a rerun of Cold Case.
Go Michael!
