DIR is still a small organization. I think it's hypocritical and unfair to accuse it of not being bigger than it is. Would you like it to grow so fast that it turns into the same shit as all the other organizations out there? Andrew g. is travelling all over the place to teach, trying to fill a void. Lot's of people want DIR instruction, but you instructors don't grow on trees. They have to be trained, and I for one *want* GUE to FAIL them, if they are not 100% up to par (which I hear is just what they do). You'll just have to wait a little and let the organization grow at it's own pace. If it really bothers you, put your money where your mouth is. Go through the training, work hard, and become an instructor. I'm sure they can use one more, especially in the philippines. Cheers! Gordon Cancio wrote: ~ >I live in the Philippines.
