But do you think the LC is growing in the United States?
From my observation, even if the LC is growing (and I really don't think it is in the United States), it is becoming an almost completely Asian society. If you go to any of the large conferences or trainings, the attendance will be 60%/70%/80% Asian. Look at the FTTA today; those are the group's young diehards--it is probably
80%-90% Asian. Really. So, whether one wants to acknowledge it or not, these numbers constitute drastic shift in the make-up of the LC, and must be indicative of
something.
And, for the record, I make these observations as an Asian-American myself; just in case that makes it more appropriate.
