btw Uplift, I have searched for the experience. Not finding it in places where people have made claims that it can be found has made me doubt the usefulness of continuing to search. I'll keep my senses and mind open, but I'd rather focus my efforts on searching that produces results...
My point exactly Mark, or the same could be asked of you, or anyone. Again and again. That type of argument is good if you like talking in circles. In the end we all believe what we choose to, and will find what we need to justify it, for as long as we want to. The bottom line is our own happiness and fullfillment.

Hows this, walk into gyms and there are people that get absolutely unbelievable results, and that swear by weight training, their eating habits etc. Other people go to the same gyms, same weights, buy the same stuff, and get no results, no matter how long they go. I'm a personal trainer, I see it all the time. There's always a pattern though. Their story, they love telling you their story. After years and years of 'training' and 'expertise' they haven't got a muscle in their body, or an ounce of strength, and they go to trainers supposedly for help, but they always, relentlessly cling to their story. 'This is how I do my workouts'. 'No I don't do it like that'. 'I've found that...' 'Weights don't work for me'. 'I eat like this'. Its like any change, only when they finally decide that they actually want something different, strongly enough, when enough is enough, they finally ditch their story, choose a new one, and 'Presto, wow, it's a miracle'! They find something where previously, they couldn't find anything!

Go Lallymac, I think it's wise to assess the state of things, honestly, so that you can choose your direction...which you obviously have. Good on you!
