					<description><![CDATA[COB almost in tears?

I do not doubt it.  If I could &quot;fool all of the people, all of the time&quot; I would be close to tears of laughter as well.

New name would be David Mustravage&quot;]]></description>

This so called bridge has become such a frankenstein, leading to brick walls and bottomless canyons.   I can&#039;t believe he&#039;s taken the tapes off the academy levels.  LRH checksheets had such a wonderful balance of mass and significance, procedure and history, that they created a great end phenomena for the course itself.  I remember them well.]]></description>

&quot;There HAS to be something that&#039;s being done that is making all of these intelligent, rational people turn zombie like and reuse to look at any other truth but the official one&quot;.

They are making themselves right.  

They are making themselves so very, very right,   because they are THERE and on the spot and kind of have to behave and talk in an over the top way because such is expected of them at all events anyway, and because it is particularly expected of them now,  and because they have to make themselves right for being talked into being there, and because, being there, they have to convince themselves that THIS is truly and finally IT, and they have been RIGHT to stick with COB,  RIGHT to ignore their doubts, RIGHT to make huge financial sacrifices, RIGHT to hand their children over to the church - whatever they have done or not done because of Scientology and David Miscavige, they have been RIGHT.  

And even if, while this event is going on, any of them have doubts or considerations they will shroud them from view,  and they will whoop and holler and gush and hyperventilate and praise and ecstasize so that they&#039;ll be able to leave with no-one the wiser.]]></description>

Well said, Indie8.  I read some of the wild promises and basically ignored them.  Learned what I could learn that was useful, contributed to many people (according to them), delivered some useful stats.  Then, when I saw the music changing, I left the dance floor quietly, making no fuss, and have been living &quot;happily ever after&quot; since then.  (Not ALL the time! LOL)  But right at the beginning, I discovered the real comm cycle, that both sides had to be practicing it.  That opened my eyes.  I don&#039;t know whether the old man discovered that stuff or stole it.  I no longer care.  He made it available and for that I&#039;m grateful.  He paid a pretty heavy price for his own errors of thinking, acting and dealing dishonestly with others.  I hope he does better next time around.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Congrats, Mike on the helicopter harassasment stunt.  Brilliant.  

We are getting lots of calls from Flag and outer orgs already to buy the new release, which we are told is $10,000.  We are not told what exactly the new release is of course (being in California), just the money amount, which is wanted right now.

Since Flag auditors are calling to buy the release from them, this means that SALES QUOTAS are will be going back in effect.  This also means staff mmembers won&#039;t be able to sleep until their quotas are met. 

The IAS event is next week at Flag.  Uh oh, more quotas are coming. 

Shall we give Dave a standing ovation for that too?]]></description>
