“I’ve been on the phone all day about this.
Everyone at the Pinellas Co. School District are professional, helpful, and return calls promptly.
It’s been like a breath of fresh air.
It’s been a good day.
Details of my final phone conversation today: According to Debbie Wolfe with the Strategic Communications Office at the Pinellas Co. School District Golden Era Productions (nor any film crew) is scheduled to film anything on Wednesday April 10, 2013 at 5:30PM. Big goose egg.
Security has been alerted to run anyone off the property who might be there to film anything.”

It was calling for 200 persons to be filmed by Golden Era Production to make a video on the day when 5000 DVD “macabre profits” had been put under envelopes in France. The truth is that only 30 persons had put these DVD under enveloppes at this time (in 2011). The goal was to show to the world a great expansion and french implication in scientology projects; It was a lie.

Nous devons réunir 200 personnes d’ici dimanche. Parlez-en autour de vous et venez nombreux !

Chris — thanks so much for your two comments. They are perfect. So good in fact I am going to turn them into their own post. This is exactly the sort of “Special Correspondent” information that is invaluable!

This post is just so funny in so many ways. “Teenscreen”??? Battle of 2005??? (Geesh … nobody ever tells me anything!) But rhis one really got me! – “Convenient selection of “facts” with an added spin and choice selection of stats could turn Little Big Horn into a massive victory for Custer …”

“More bullets fired than in any other cavalry encounter ….”
“Lowest horse / man loss ratio in history ….”
“Geatest seizure of Indian arrows ever ….”

(I shouldn’t laugh, I wasn’t there on either side, but your statement about it is really funny!)

Just found your site! Very good idea to separate the blogs (Martys, Steves and now yours), so that all purposes can be met – like “splitting” an org into separate divisions, still remaining a team.
Regarding this article I just can add that it hasn´t been different over here in Europe. In Berlin, soon after the opening of the “Ideal” (idealized) Org in 2007 Gold came over to take pictures of the Dianetics book sellers. We had to go to the famous “Brandenburger Tor” in order to have a Berlin typical scenery. Since IN FACT we had only about 3 people you could have called FSMs or public booksellers – once in a while – , all staff that was dispensable for some hours were ordered to go there to “fill” the picture. In order to not make it too obvious that those on the picture were not active publics – like announced – we had to wear privat / casual clothes or got a red Dianetics jacket over our Staff uniform. Additionally every tourist that was standing around watching the filming, was invited to join the filmed “Dianetics book sellers team”, too. So we made a group of about 40 people.
This was the last time I´ve ever been happy about seeing expansion videos.
Later, when I met Staff of the Gold film team somewhere I asked them why they never shot “live” pictures, “real” photos. I always got a non-answer and was being told that there were “confidential” hatting materials from Ron, which would answer all my questions, which they couldn´t show me. – Hidden data line.
I even wrote an RTC report about this a few years ago, mentioning that those actions were in fact pure lies – giving the idea that there was a big team, when there was in fact no public book sellers team at all. Of course I never got a reply on this.

He knows his public and where they are at spiritually and what they want. They deserve each other. All the evil on the whole track has been caused by psychs and now psychiatry is finally dying out after all these eons. Thank you Dave.
