Can or should TROM be made available to the masses?

No. Only Ex-Scientologists can understand TROM. It would be dangerous for the uninitiated.

Yes.  But the materials will need a lot of clarifying for the uninitiated.

Yes.  The currently published materials are fine the way they are and don't need clarifying.

No. Even with clarification the uninitiated would botch it and ruin their minds.

I don't know enough about TROM to know one way or the other.

I think it's only in the currently published TROM a Games Manual (not the original 1979) that over-burdens the reader with Scn terminology in the first part, where, inserted before the main text is Dennis talking about the GPMs, Analytical Mind and Reactive Mind that the newbie becomes overwhelmed.  And with a glossary only ten terms long, one which doesn't even appear in the text, its going to drive just about anyone away who doesn't understand Scn.  The glossary I made has dozens of terms that I spotted in the text that the laymen needs defined.

Ron was right about most things.  His attitude was different than Dennis' but his data was mostly correct.  Misunderstood word phenomenon (losing comprehension from undefined words) is indisputably correct.

(For anyone else reading this besides David, if you need those terms defined, there is a glossary in "Read TROM here" in this forum)

Scientologists go free in many ways, or better put, they get new abilities and get rid of some of their case, but I don't think Scientology resolves the compulsion to play games.  I think Ron died still a compulsive games player, as able as he was.

I wouldn't be here if not for Ron.
Ron started as a must-be-known - as I knew him - and went down a notch before he died into a must-not-be-known.
