Elena - I picked up the Landmark 'jargon' while looking for cult news. This site is one of the most informative ones on the issues and so I thought I'd play a practical joke by provoking people into thinking I've been at the Landmark forum :). So now you know - I have not been to it - but I enjoyed the response I squeezed out of getting people to think that I could've been in it. It was interesting to see the responses actually :).
No prob, BalkanBoy. I always try to give people the benefit of the doubt. There are lots of readers here and many who don't post, so I address just about any assertion, query, or concern with that in mind.

There is a lot of hostility toward Landmark
You betcha! Hostility, anger, loathing, disgust, repulsion....you name it. Some experience with them might give you the same, IF you have any sensitivity and a functioning conscience.

- and I don't know whether their intentions are cruel or honest - only what I read here.
Only? Either/Or? Can't you come up with some other possibilities?

I actually have no idea what 'enrollment' means :), or that it was used at the "forum" (or what have you) but I gathered as much to know that it means some sort of subtle propaganda.
Listen, I'm really sorry I got you guys all wound up -
Not "wound up" at all. Blowing off a little steam against newly-minted Landmark know-it-alls (pretense or not) is like shooting fish in a barrel to me. (Not all that strenuous.)

I hope you can forgive me. Curiosity just got the best of me :), so I played a fool here ;). And yeah, I'm an engineer, and I've had my sense of good honest humor surgically removed from me long time ago (maybe that's why my wife hates it too ;)
No need. "No harm, no foul," - so to speak. (Unless you were thinking your post was more significant than it really was. We get lots of phonies around here.)
