I can understand Donald's parents' grief
over the tragedy of their son's death.
In their pain they are understandably
inclined to search for events and individuals
they can use to explain or rationalize

seminars I conducted on meditation and
self-development is far-fetched at the very

When examined individually the charges
that these six persons have made against

all of these people walk into a newspaper
office together and tell their stories, an
avalanche effect occurs. I can well understand
how all of these allegations, when presented
at the same time, could raise questions in
someone's mind regarding my conduct and
character.
