Earlier today, I was having a random discussion with one of the surviving members of the Fountain of the World, and we happened upon the subject of people conducting internet searches for "Krishna Venta" and their reasons for so doing.
I told them that I guesstimated that better than 90% of the people out there these days who know the name "Krishna Venta" and who are seeking additional information regarding him online probably came by their knowledge of Venta by having read one of the books regarding Charles Manson that mention him (e.g., Ed Sanders' The Family [see http://krishnaventa.blogspot.com/2008/11/16-ed-sanders-and-family.html], Paul Watkins' My Life With Charles Manson [see http://krishnaventa.blogspot.com/2008/12/47-paul-watkins-deceased-member-of.html and http://krishnaventa.blogspot.com/2008/12/48-word-about-paul-watkins-facts.html], etc.).
They were surprised and disappointed, to say the least, to learn that Manson of all people was the portal via which most people hear about Venta these days.
