					<description><![CDATA[Me too, Jane. Many, many years ago I recall someone just walking INTO an org and experiencing relief from the environment due to the friendly atmosphere and lots of people willing to grant beingness. I still remember this person&#039;s exact words: &quot;I don&#039;t know what this place is.....but I know I&#039;ve found it!   :-)  &quot;  
Unfortunately, today the opposite is happening. People are experiencing relief and case gain by walking OUT of the Church of Scientology. 
But that&#039;s OK. It&#039;s all good.  In the applied religious philosophy of Scientology any case gain is still case gain.]]></description>

That&#039;s so cool Espiritu.  We got into Scn to free ourselves and others and we&#039;re still on that task.  Freedom of the tech itself, of thought, of our physical movement, of our communication, and of control over our lives with privacy, even the right to walk away, are still, at the core of my beliefs.   +1!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Mike, I just want to acknowledge that your blog has been and is VERY effectively in bringing the truth about the current state of the COS to light. You keep your postings coming, day in and day out, and they are very effective at reaching people still &quot;In&quot; who see all of the outpoints in their immediate areas. Your blog lets them put their own observations in perspective with a broader pictures of what is happening in the COS internationally. It lets them see that they are not the only ones who see what they see. 

A couple of days ago, as a member of our local indie unofficial &quot;underground railroad&quot;, I helped someone get out of a snake pit of COS and RTC harassment,  quietly cut comm with that whole suppressive scene and move into a safe environment. The relief that this person experienced was palpable and I just wanted to convey to you that your Blog was a key inspiration for this one person swearing off the cool aid. It was so nice to see the VVGIs that resulted and this being coming back to life. I am sure that there are many other similar events occurring all over the world. Keep up the good work. It is very much appreciated.]]></description>
