No one sat in wooden chairs since 1972?

Really, and to think, I came in in July 73 and all that time I coulda swore it was wooden chairs the kids would break pieces off to cut themselves with.

What were they then?

Heresay? Bullshit on that bigtime. Each and every one of the things I have mentioned were witnessed on a routine regular basis by people who were inprisoned involuntarily in your cult.  In addition, they were well documented in the press.

Ft Lauderdale, were you really in the seed?  All that shit was the culture of the day and if you would use the first and most comical rule, you would stop trying to deny or minimize the facts.

Hey Greg, maybe he meant no one sat in wooden chairs continuously since 1972. 33 years would be a long sitting. At the Lauderdale Seed, I seem to recall mostly wooden chairs at first, then metal. As I have never seen or heard of wood turning to metal, I guess the kids eventually broke all the pieces off, or Art sent them to St. Pete to have that done. Probably the latter, as I don't  recall anyone being asked to sit on a single sliver of wood in Lauderdale. Then Art replaced them with the metal ones.  Hell, I suppose in single sliver condition, you couldn't keep calling them chairs anyway. At least not with a straight face.

Newcomers got tougher over time. Can you imagine breaking off chunks of STEEL with your bare hands to cut yourself with? The wooden chair people had it too easy in my opinion.

Imagine? I've seen it done, bro! Not only that but those metal chairs are not just neat props for WWF events. They actually do make effective offensive weapons.

But wtf are we arguing about, anyway? Wood, plastic, metal, what's the difference? It's not good for anybody to be confined in a highly stressful, ongoing meeting for 12 hours a day, months at a stretch. But that remains a core element of the Seed spawned programs.

But I'm glad you're finally willing to admit to the cutting that went on there. Never saw that happen in school or in juvenile detention or anywhere else but in group.

Whoa, Sis. I'm not arguing anything. I don't deny cutting went on. There are not many claims made here that I am in a position to deny. I was simply trying to inject some humor into the day. If anyone is offended by that, please except my apology. My rambling was not intended to evoke anything but a chuckle.  :eek:

Ft. Lauderdale:
Antigen,

It was once 12 hrs a day going back 30 yrs ago.

Lots of things have changed since the 70's 80's and even 90's.  

The last time I remember someone even getting yelled at in the group had to be 20 years ago.

I guess ALMOST all of us have evolved since then and moved on.

I never was in ST. Pete so I'm sorry maybe there were wooden chairs there.

Do you still use wire hangers?
