10. Or, as a columnist once called them, Up With Dinner

I think it may have been Jon Carroll of the SF Chron, then with the Oakland Tribune. It was way pre-Web so I can't find it.

Up With Dinner, indeed! :rofl:

12. Wasn't actress Glen Close once a member?

I think I read that somewhere. She was raised in a rather creepy fundie environment, and "Up With People" was part of it. She rebelled against her upbringing, if I'm remembering this correctly.
