Judy,
I better explain the joke...
Landmark is not Tax Free / non-profit. It does have an intrinsic pyramid not too different from Amway or Tupperware. At each level, folowers are "encouraged" (just this side of threatened) to promote. They use "Shame/Blame" rhetoric to coerce promotional performance. They are incessent about asking if we know anyone who could benefit from Landmark.
I am defiantly opposed to their promotional strategies and their secrecy doctrine. I do get their message and repeat whatever I feel like repeating. I have never paid them a dime, nor will I.
