What is the HMS National commitment? What was so bad there may been a mutiny?
--- End quote ---

"National Commitment" was Hyde School's dream of changing the face, not to mention the guts, of the American educational system.  Not sure what Guest meant by mutiny since most everyone at that time was either brainwashed or cowed into silence by those that were.  Errant folk who would not partake from that goblet were either rousted out with great fanfare and humiliation, or managed to slink away quietly with some of their sanity still intact.Cult groups may often claim to be imbued with a higher sense of purpose.  They portray themselves as members of an elite—the vanguard of a social or spiritual movement with a mystical imperative, "the pursuit of which must supersede all considerations of decency or of immediate human welfare."

From:  Thought Reform and the Psychology of Totalism, p422, by R.J. Lifton. New York: Norton (1961).[/list]

Dont forget the traveling road show Americas Spirit that went along with it for publicitys sake.  Just how many rules, laws, ethical boundaries and kids educations and futures were thrown out for NC/AS?  Nice if you were in sync with Hyde.  Not all were.

I thank you, my good friend, fer yer words of support and wisdom!  I'm not "Mr. Gee Whiz," but I yam The Man, and The WIZ, when it comes to changing kids fer the better and giving them the chance of a lifetime to explore their destiny of unique potential, or a potentially unique destiny, or uniquely potential destiny, or whatever... I can't keep track of how we are selling it half the time.  Those words don't mean a piss-poor weasley squat anyway, but they sure do SOUND good!! Har-de-har har har!!!
