Funny you should say that - as I understand it, that pretty much was what happened. According to Mike there were about 20 CST crew in The Hole at one point, including the CO (Russ Bellin).]]></description>

EXACTLY!  Part of the contract Sea Org sign promises free auditing and courses, etc, so they can get up the bridge by paying for it through service instead of money.  Scientology is in breach of contract with its members since this doesn&#039;t happen.  Because the tech doesn&#039;t work.  

If it DID work, then it&#039;d be in the organization&#039;s interest to get them up the bridge as fast as possible, since Scientology &quot;makes the able more able&quot; right?  In other words, an OTVIII Sea org member can do more than an OTI, who can do more than a clear, who can do more than what they got.  

But because it doesn&#039;t work, they have them running around doing more productive things.  Like pumping out junk mail.  Telemarketing aimed at &quot;anyone who&#039;s ever done any scientology ever.&quot;  Tracking down those people.  And sticking a vacuum hose into the marks&#039; wallets and sucking until they get blood.]]></description>

Cece, *I* won&#039;t take that bet as Davey has obviously pulled in any money expenditures and is entirely focussed on 1)rapacious fundraising and 2) making prestigious (he thinks) connections to good organizations who can appear to elevate his little kingdom into relevance in any way, shape, or form. 

He wants &lt;b&gt;status&lt;/b&gt; above all. 
scientology (or what passes for it these days) is expendable, soon to be sacrificed to preserve HIS skin.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Universe Corps!?  That obviously was a joke and a stale carrot to hype staff up over the mistreatment they were about to receive for NOT being able to get Hubbard&#039;s &quot;tech&quot; to work well enough to get the orgs onto a stable footing.    The required hoops they had to jump through were irrational, ill-defined, and unobtainable.  Any staff still hoping for the top of the &quot;bridge&quot; AS staff, not paying public, have drunk deeply of the Kool-Aid and aren&#039;t paying any attention to what has actually happened since it was dangled in front of staffs&#039; noses.
By now, that fake carrot must have faded to a sickly yellow, the plastic cracked, and the string holding it decayed into mere threads, unable to hold anything up.]]></description>
