Yes, that is quite true.
 
My point was that even though the charedi community may /consciously/  reject 
TIDE, it nevertheless incorporates many elements of TIDE without  
acknowledging that it is doing so.  It is completely impossible to live in  the modern 
world without at least some of the elements of TIDE, which is why  TIDE was not 
a hora'as sha'ah but the blueprint for an ideal Torah life, and  even if you 
want to insist that it /was/ a hora'as sha'ah, well, we are still  very much in 
that same sha'ah for which TIDE was and is a hora'ah.  This is  certainly the 
case in America and is even the case in E'Y.
