I would completely agree with you woonpton This has been raised many times  the research section is ridiculously long never mind the quality of ALL of the studies This has been raised time and time again  even by Admins Alas it reflects the style of TM marketing and they REFUSE to allow it to be both shortened and critiqued It just ends up with all of the ladies here threatening banning and suing and all sorts of other nonsense It concludes with an edit war  and much stamping of feet  until anyone remotely neutral goes away in disgust having had enough of it As hard as it might be to imagine considering the comments here by others directed in my direction I am neutral My only concern has been due to the blatant intellectually dishonesty in the editing of this article
