It amazes me how, with complete disregard for personal wishes, the Clam Collective spreads out addresses to all their fellow clams and goes searching on the Net for email addresses. My wife did not share her email address at Yahoo with any $cientology Lurch but she started getting spam out of the blue. The latest, today, shows me that: (a) they are desperate for money and coming up with yet more "products" to get it at any cost; and (b) there aren't as many OSA dorks reading this group as some of you think, or they might've read my posts and gotten the hint that we don't want to be bothered. Their mistake.
Here's the spam she got today. Wondered how much got edited out of the tapes, like the sec check tape where Humbug is security checking James Hare, who laughingly discusses invading a planet and raping all the 12 year-old girls. I remember when Bridge was transcribing all those tapes and they excised that bit out, although I heard the tape as originally constituted while reading the edited written transcript. Here's the latest drivel from the Land of the Loons --

comes with a supplement of Source materials ‹ LRH hand-drawn charts,
related Source writings from the time, the codes, scales or axioms
referred to in the lectures.
Complete glossaries of terms and phrases in each transcript booklet ensure full understanding of the lectures. The lid locks automatically when closed, holding all the elements securely in place.

Hubbard farted on the toilet? Couldn't have been much of a holy man or guru. A true guru would inspire his followers, with a cooly cosmic problem/question/mystery such as:
"What is the sound of one cheek flapping?"
