					<description><![CDATA[&quot;The finest organizations in history have been tough, dedicated organizations&quot;

While true, that also goes for the &quot;not so finest organizations&quot;.  There are many tough, dedicated &quot;organizations&quot;, that fall on the &quot;other end of the spectrum&quot;.  

Just sayin&#039;

And, being both a Harry Potter fan, and Superman fan.... I&#039;m not particularly thrilled, or keen, or elated about an organization using these as their promo options (I don&#039;t care what organization, but especially the SCN one....).

Wish they would stop &quot;biting&quot; (copying/taking from/ stealing) others.  Also, wouldn&#039;t this be a &quot;legal&quot; issue?  I&#039;m pretty sure (not 100%, but still) that this is an infringement of trademark, or copyright.  In my experience, I&#039;ve never seen / heard the church as for &quot;permission&quot; on anything.  Maybe the &quot;Harry Potter&quot; one could slide (maybe), given there isn&#039;t any &quot;official&quot; Harry Potter imagery, but the Superman / wonder woman......]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&quot;If your (sic) a Freedom Fighter and want Donald back in office...make $42 an hour as an independent contractor for 37 days...if you are local to California,,,make $30 an hour...  Elon Musk is sponsoring this...&quot;

Still laughing!

That&#039;s right, Clams, you go schlepp around from door to door in California surveying  NON voters  with 3 questions.  Because Musk,  who lives in Texas now,  knows exactly who these non voters ARE,  and where they LIVE.   Sounds like a plan, guys!  Sounds like a GREAT way to get Donald Trump reelected!  Flush out the shirkers of their civic duty in Deep Blue California, with 3 brilliant Scientology survey questions find out WHY they don&#039;t vote and then by gum they can be HANDLED so they&#039;ll vote for the Donald - and FREEDOM!   And last but not least,  when it comes time to get PAID,  have NO fear, I mean, don&#039;t give getting paid a 2nd thought - and neither will Donald or Elon...:)]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I note that the Auckland event is advertised by an image of their place in Chatswood, Sydney (and repeat myself to say that, given the location, the approval process for building it must have been corrupt). 

I&#039;m not a never-in who&#039;s never crossed the threshold of an org, have  several times. 
 
Enjoy the previous posts. OTs and SNOTs should certainly have the ability to be &#039;at cause&#039; to dissolve a hurricane. 

I only have one &#039;org&#039; nearby, it&#039;s ideal and empty. 

My question is, if they have an event that is free admission, and includes dinner, is it possible to eat the gratis meal and then simply leave after eating?]]></description>

I’m just glad that they didn’t send any VMs here to Asheville because they probably would’ve creeped everybody out in our Red Cross shelter trying to do Touch Assists. I lost my room in the veterans residence I was staying at due to the Swannanoa River raging through the first floor. Going there tomorrow for salvage operations. Hope something is left.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[About that hurricane prep in Clearwater. With all of the NOTs and SNOTs and OT VIIIs completions in the area, why couldn&#039;t just a few of them get together and be at cause over something as simple as a class 4 hurricane? Someone should write a KR on these dilettantes. According to the Ol&#039; Grifter hisself, these sorts of actions are mere child&#039;s play for an OT.

Of course, if asked, the culties would say that they wouldn&#039;t perform these incredible feats because the general population wouldn&#039;t be able to &quot;have&quot; it. It would be too miraculous. It seems to me that it would be better for the cult to just funnel the money saved from hurricane prep into sea org reserves and get their stats up regardless of what the general public thinks.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Regarding the Chan Man, years ago when we were still speaking my brother attended one of his events and told me he was &quot;blown away&quot; by the guy&#039;s energy and tone 40. What was a real hit apparently was than Chan drilled them on holding out their hand and in tone 40 say &#039;give me your money&#039; which the target simply couldn&#039;t resist. I&#039;m assuming this didn&#039;t actually work in practice because my brother is still working every scam like a good still-in.]]></description>
