Extensive Research???

In WHAT???

HOW???

BY WHAT ACADEMIC RESEARCHERS???

WITH WHAT DEGREES???

Hehehe, the answer is, none.

you have to keep in mind that the research conducted by landmark would be done in Landmarkia only, (they just assume everyone knows this) by landmarkian researchers or at least ones influenced by landmarkia oxygen anyway, and none of its research findings can ever be be refuted here on earth because we are another planet/reality altogether. Also, research as we understand it here is typically conducted by several bodies of researchers with wide and varied purposes for the research conducted (not just one biased goal) and the findings are presented openly, 'untweaked' and published in PEER REVIEWED journals etc...and is wide open to debate, debunking, or in some cases disqualification on ethical grounds alone....so, in Landmarkia, where the Landmarkia authorities rule, research has indeed been conducted...and proven valid and sound.
They didn't say anything about balancing their findings against mainstream earthly research standards or guidelines, so hopefully no one here falls for the covert implication of validity in the

BS! Also, they don't mention what the nature of the breakthroughs are or how communication and effectiveness are altered. They just sort of leave the conclusions to the reader and we all know how the reader will want to interpret/construct such a vague and non-committal claim.

The other flagship (leaking raft) course Landmark should offer is an [b:99c960e86a]Exit Strategy[/b:99c960e86a] course. I thought saying a 'last goodbye' was an important step in any training facility's program, unless they're not a training facility. It should be - 'Okay, we've shown you our stuff. Now, it's time for you to make it on your own.' Landmarkian smiles and waves and closes the door. Problem is, he/she never let you out... :cry:

Oh gee, I must have forgotten which set I stumbled on to. It's not so much a training facility as it is a form of employment - no cost advertising and recruitment. More than 40 programs, like job training, except it's volunteer hard-labour!
