					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mikerindersblog.org/the-golden-age-of-narconon-and-idealiness/#comment-116489&quot;&gt;The Oracle&lt;/a&gt;.

naw... they used to be bad
aint no more
i used to get dreams
if i talk too much about it, at a bar maybe or to some stranger
because for quite a few years out everybody was a stranger
and yes, you&#039;re right, it was because the religion or whatever it was was something I really truly could not talk about. It was a rule, for one thing, the way i was brought up so to speak, the way i had molded myself, working so hard and passionately into a scientologist, please don&#039;t make me say that word.
In those dreams - i would be back inside. And yes i felt horrible. I was thinking very strongly that i didn&#039;t want to be there, that i was just fine living as a ski bum in Tahoe. It was bad, very self-consciously bad, because to have such thoughts of joy - 
is against scientology law. 
(i spoke the word again only because i do not fear the truth)
And it looks like all these smiles are fake... they want to ask me about my thoughts over and over and how long can i keep this up, hell, do i even want to? Sliding down snowy mountains surely beats the shame out of leaving here, but...
All joy must come from the church. period.
Yep, good news, these [____ing] dreams were always short and I always woke up happy it was over.]]></description>

Actually the speed of the needle is of course mentioned in the &quot;rhythmic sweep of the dial at a slow even pace of the needle&quot; definition, but what I meant was a clearer (and relative) definition of the term &quot;slow&quot; as used here. For instance we all know what a slow rise is but that speed is not the same as the F/N&#039;s &quot;slow even pace of the needle&quot; is it? The &quot;slow&quot; in slow rise is much slower than the F/N&#039;s &quot;slow&quot;. The E-Meter Films were pretty good in showing this (or the early versions anyway) but nevertheless textually (in HCOBs I mean) it could have been communicated better - then COB wouldn&#039;t have had a leg to stand on with his 3 swing nonsense (actually he doesn&#039;t anyway). Anyway I am rambling on now - we all know what an F/N is! Maybe I am trying to help DM clear up his MisUs?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I worked at this Narconon in Fort Collins. Let me just say that when I left (as staff) in 2013, they were then busy ripping walls apart and building new bathrooms. What the f**** has Glenn Petcavage been doing these years to still need help with this sh*t hole of a building. He used to make students do the contractor work for MEST. Yeah. That&#039;s legal. 
Anyway, got Any questions? ;) Please AMA.]]></description>
