est?

EST-- a human potential system with expensive, intense workshops.

How quickly things change-- EST was very well-known in its time, but you're not the only person I've talked with who'd never heard of it.

Might also be a cultural thing - the Wikipedia articles gives me the impression it was more known in the US than in Europe. There's only one non-English version of the article.

It might be cultural, but the other person who hadn't heard of it is American, and only about 15 years younger than I am.
