still...although the dalai lama seems nifty, he represents a spiritual tradition/religion, rather than speaking for the rights of the individual. I just find his statement really, really disturbing--to me, forcible "psychiatric intervention" of any sort is inherently *violent* and the dalai lama of all people generally comes out against *violence* in its varied forms.
