Vipassana retreat?

[mattbell]

I heard some very good things about the North Fork Vipassana retreat center last weekend.  (At least according to the guy I talked to, this particular one is excellent and not cultish.)  I'm hesitant to commit a full 10 days to something like this without really knowing what I'm getting into.

If any of you have done this sort of thing, I'd love to chat with you more about what to expect.

I'm sure I've met them at least once, but I don't know them that well.

i'm interested to hear your experience if you go, since i've been considering doing this myself. i've met people who did retreats in thailand, but i didn't want to spend my travel time that way, at least not this time around.

i do have a hard time imagining not talking for 10 days though!
