My take on Jonx is that on the surface he is here to pick on ex-premies,

but why is he really here, he is not trying to get you back in the fold,

I think deep down he knows something is very wrong with M and his whole package,

He obviously put a lot of time and money into making K work for him and he cons himself into thinking everything is working for him, but under the pretext of giving us a hard time I think part of him is searching for just that certain post, just that certain bit of information that will allow him to break free.

Jonx, you took a leap of faith with M, and if M and K really are working for you, then by all means stick it out. We are all here a very short time and I respect someone just trying to make the best of it. But if you are fooling yourself then why not leap out?

Why do you have to pick on others who truely much happier now without M than with M?
you try to say there were not genuine to the effort, many of these people were invloved with M for 20+ or 30+ years if they didn't make a serious effort I don't know what is?

I think deep down you feel you can get them to admit that they did something wrong or did  not give it enough serious effort, it would allow you to feel you are not wasting your time, your looking to validate a path you have some deeply seeded doubts about.

good luck
