And falling asleep can sometimes be an indicator of extreme boredom, not an MU.

Declares do have power. They also have status, earlier is higher. If i had my Goldenrod, I would enlarge it to 2-foot by 3-foot, frame it under glass, and post it on my living-room wall for everyone to see. Proud, I am. And happy. I am out of that rotten cult, never to return. WOOOAAAH!

One would have to be crazy as Hubbard,

to walk around bragging about being OT8… which is probably why they don’t.
Such a man would certainly be in denial about the non-manifestation of OT9, for one thing.
Has it been 20 years, has it not, in the waiting?… 20 years or longer of following the leader-
in silence.

Should not the OT “know” what OT really is?
Should not the OT be willing and able to speak truthfully to the subject of
“The Bridge to Total Freedom”?
Yet, they are never heard. When the critical voice is raised on public media,
there are no OT persons to speak.
There are no OT persons who speak,
to me or you, to pundits, nor to the rest of the world’s teachers.
No OTs to speak openly to the world’s students. Hubbard has their voices mute,
it does appear.

“Being”
OT Eight
means being in denial and rationalization for every other single solitary thing that Scientology says about itself.
OT Eight
is from a belief system that denies everything that is not LRH,
and then again in denial about everything that IS LRH.
OT Eight
is supposed to know everything.
And that is just plain crazy, indeed.
I have trouble blaming them. After all, they were led into it…

OSD,

I have connections. Maybe a telex? Or do you really have your heart set on an actual mimeograph?

Yeah, you know, TFB, I guess an email would suffice. I wanted the Goldenrod because it was the color of my hair. But, I guess I can live without it.

Is that a rhetorical question?
