Anyone heard of Landmark Education or Landmark Forum? I went to an intro last night and I'm curious to see if anyone else has had an experience with them, or knows of anyone.

Caveat emptor, BUYER BEWARE.
Do some web searching for terms like "Landmark Forum", "Landmark Education", EST, Erhard Seminars Training, Werner Erhard, Werner Erhard and Associates, Art Schreiber, "Voyage to the Land of the New Gurus" - and read / listen / watch as much as you possibly can before deciding on whether or not to pay money for this ... stuff.
Also I can't recommend enough the most excellent book OUTRAGEOUS BETRAYAL, by Steven Pressman.

Thank-you, anonymous! I have been doing research since I made this post and the stuff I have come across is very disheartening. (I read all of the comments on www.rickross.com.) I know 2 people that are involved, one just recently, and I tried to share the info I found, but they seem to already be brainwashed in to thinking this is the best thing ever, and have already put out tons of money.
I must be stronger than I think, as I was able resist their hard-core sales pitch.
This is what I've found for myself; almost NONE of the people who complain about it, have ever done it (and, at least not completed it).
Rick Ross is a two time convicted jewelry thief who got caught in a heist several years ago. He has no degree, diploma or any other credentials to councel people. He has never completed the LM Forum.
Ask people who have done it. Over 90% say it's one of the most profound experiences in their life. It was for me, and continues to be so after 1989 when I first took it. My quality of life changed dramatically. There are, of course, numerous people, who appear all good intentioned, to keep you from being free. Watch those people. See what their REAL experience and motivation is, instead of gossip, rumours etc. online and elsewhere, then make your own decision.

Landmark Education has been investigated for potential Labor Practices Violations, by the Federal Governments of both the United States, and France. They then stopped all their operations in France.
Please, please please, read , listen and watch all that you can on the internet about this dangerous group!
The reason why Landmark Education have a lack of attendees that complain is that the group sessions are tantamount to "large group brainwashing". Having long sessions with no breaks and not enough sleep is part of the mechanism to do this. By the end *everyone* has 'popped' and becomes a believer

That is a good start.

"My quality of life changed dramatically."
I have heard this claim. Would you mind sharing a bit of how your life has changed?
