Hmmm .... I once knew a fellow named James Rosso.

But he spelled his name &quot;James Russo&quot;.

Are you sure that wasn&#039;t you? He was an OT-I-DONT-NO and he used to boss all the PCs around.]]></description>

How many Clear are going up the bridge?

That is not important. Not the least little bit! Why not?

Well .... have you not heard the expression, ...

&quot;What goes up must then come down when the money runs out!&quot;

Listen carefully. Can you hear it? That is the sound of the money running out!]]></description>

If &#039;good&#039; is just buying buildings, that&#039;s damning.  Plus Austin is a failed example of Scientology&#039;s shrinkage and decline, and inability to get things done. 

First, Austin didn&#039;t buy a building, but rather was renovating one they had long been in - do you just have your facts wrong, or have you been misled?  It was finished before the pandemic hit, but they somehow screwed up in the process of getting a permit from the city to have an opening ceremony.  Then after things shut down, rather than doing the competent and sensible thing and moving the org in anyway, they have continued paying for a rented &quot;temporary&quot; location for going on two more years now - which they also spent an unnecessary extra year in at the beginning, as their original building sat empty but with no work going on due to their having screwed up the construction scheduling.  

And 10 kids aren&#039;t going to help much towards the nearly 200 staff they&#039;re supposed to have for an opening, plus isn&#039;t it illegal for minors not to be in school, and doesn&#039;t sending them to Texas mean taking children away from their families?  Are you admitting Scientology breaks the law and destroys families?]]></description>

The CO$ could unexist me for all I care, and probably has.  In Oct 1968, while running the Confusion GPM  pairs on the Clearing Course I started laughing uncontrollably (line charge) for 5 days every time I tried to continue.  When I told the AOLA Qual Sec I had a problem continuing she got got a mixed expression of WTF and suppressed laughter.  She simply asked &#039;has something changed?&#039;   After another LC, I said &#039;I got it.&#039;  

The CO$ could unclear me and all they would get from me is a sneer and flip off.]]></description>

Doing A-E much?

Or in any other way trying to deliver an effective blow to the enemies of scientology?

You should understand most exes laugh about you trying. Buying buildings isn&#039;t good work.

Get out. Run from Scientology. Over 3,000 ex members have spoken out about the abuses

Glenn, I agree it&#039;s plausible that 900 is their all-time count.  Scientology has been trying to get to 10,000 on NOTs forever, and that&#039;s probably mostly accounted for by major operations in the US plus I believe Saint Hill, so it seems to me that ASHO EU in Denmark could account for around 10% of the all-time total.]]></description>

I&#039;m undecided if Jean Spinner is a scientologist or just a prankster conversant in scientologese. <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f644.png" alt="🙄" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" />]]></description>
