Not correct Espiritu. SPD’s were around (and El Con knew of them) long before DM came to power. In FACT, HCO PL’s (per El Con) do not have to be authored by Hisself. There are MANY issue types that non-S.O. are unaware of because “public” are not on their distribution.

Hi Espritu,I thank you for sorting me out,any tips I can garner about web usage helps.I’m just a lady who has always loved to write and it flows wherever I send the words.I did not know what lol meant at first, my mind went to Lost On Luna, see now you know why I joined Sea Org,Ron’s epic fiction pulled me right on in.David has throughly torn the cos ship to pieces and sits in any number of his castle-mansions watching the wreckage float out to Sea.Years ago when I wrote him at around 14 his age then,what an arrogant,uneducated, in your face kid he was.Only communicated with a few letters with him and never pulled his CF file again.He was not worth my time.Always Ann B.

Yes, I understand that use of quote marks. You didn’t understand what I communicated. You’d have to be familiar with the actual scene there to understand based on what I wrote. My bad.

Not being familiar with punctuation and its uses can sometimes lead to misunderstandings such as the above where John did not get that I was using the word “persuaded’ sarcastically.
The Scientology Grammar Course book covers punctuation fairly well. However, “ironically”, it fails to mention the use of quotes to indicate irony. 🙂
Otherwise, it is actually a good, easy to understand educational tools that aid in effective communication. Too bad DM wrecked the possibility of them and other study tech being used in schools by trying to use them as dissemination instead of just making them available with no strings attached.

Hi Espiritu, Thank you for the info about quotations around words when posting.I am a babe on the Internet and thought the quotation marks were just that and nothing more.I get educated here as well.Always Ann B.

Espiritu, WOW! I have never seen it.

“Both these issue types will continue to bear LRH’s signature,as they will be assembled directly from his notes and dictation.”

That explains the Pain and Sex bulletin.

It is basically saying they can paste things together and put Hubbard’s signature on it. LAUGHTER!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for sharing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I fully understand that everyone in the COS power structure is irrelevant except for DM.

I doubt, however, that Ray would ever dare to be irreverent. 😉

Hi Shadow,I feel as you about getting free.I am happy you can talk periodically with your friend.Progress comes in many guises doesn’t it! Always Ann B.

Thanks Ann; I too am glad I found Mike’s posts and never made it to Flag, guess my knowingness was working in my favor to keep me from going.

Love Mike’s blogs and every ones responses too. So many things I have felt over the years being said by so many others on these blogs/postings. I even told a friend of mine, who has been off lines for many years, about the blogs. He and I couldn’t talk about these sort of things as you may know while a staff member, but now we can and do periodically.
