        I don't think very much of your hot-tub Buddhism, with its   
   admitted clinging to "life-experience," its self-enamored   
   praise for the "complex, rich and varied" life of the   
   householder, and its transparent attempts to ignore or diminish   
   the sharper-edged elements of Buddhist philosophy, e.g. the   
   rejection of worldly existence.  Not that I would want to harsh   
   your mellow.
