Of all the condescending garbage I've ever read...
I just have a hard time seeing you as a great teacher with purely 
altruistic goals.  Looking at your post in terms of the four principles:
1. Does Brodie attempt to control information: absolutely
2. Does Brodie attempt to control associations: that's tough to do from a 
usenet group, but there definately seems to be a Brodie in-group and a 
Brodie out group.
3. Does Brodie attempt to control thought/language: oh yeah, with his 
whole "level three" "four principles" etc.
4. Does Brodie control punishment and rewards: again, pretty hard to do 
using this medium, but he tries
So what does it mean?  I may be cynical, but I doubt that Brodie would 
waste his time on such a newgroup without a hidden motive.  Maybe a new 
book on the horizon?
