Dear MIA, Very well done on being able to confront and act so many can not do that and those actions are the first steps of really going free.
Congratulations on getting 7 others to leave with you. Your post is so important because so many scientologists lurk on this sight and the more of us that come out with our Grade O's in the more they will see that it is safe to speak up.
Thankyou for your acknowledgement of the videos. Virginia McClaughry needs to ack'ed as well for having the guts to show us C/S series 73RB which started the whole cycle for us.
So many, and we were there once, are in such fear of this org especially if they have business lines or family lines attached to Scn. Your bravery and courage to take a stand are admirable and we commended you, you have no idea how many other scn's you have and will help.
It would be great for you to do a video of your experiences and what you know of the changes in Hubbards writings....these testimonials are soo helpful and create such impact that we get calls every week from lurking Scn regarding our video.
You can contact us if you wish either by email or phone. Again very well done and we wish for you all the best that freedom has to offer.
Thankyou,
Greg and Debra

It might be of interest for people on this newsgroup what you do with these calls each week that you get.
Such as what sites, information, etc. seems to be of most interest or help to them.
That way, others here could better know what to refer a lurking scientologist to, should they ever talk to one.
I, myself, refer the people that I get on my lines, (similar to you-it's every week) to read, McDonald Papers, Veritas's site, www.freezone.de (lots of scn'ists affidavits there), our site (for criminal time track and all of ours story), the newsgroups, and also COSinvestigations list.
I also show them how to do a doubt formula properly (something that's still real to them).
I have found the above sites of most help to still in scientologists, and then later clambake (if they haven't seen it already-usually they have).
What do you refer them to?

Wow!
I never really expected such a warm welcome as you all have shown me. For those of you who wondered... NO I am not a troll and I am really Missing In Action from Scientology.
Since there was such a great response and welcome, it will be too hard for me to contact you all individually. If you really want to persue conversation with me, leave an email addresses (other than dejas) to contact you. I will be emailing Virginia, Stacy and Bob Minton for starters.
I am not quite ready to lay out my whole story and for some of you it won't be too unfamiliar since the tactics to make money are universal in Scientology.
I will be discusing it with the LMT FIRST to review, when the time is right, so please don't bug them either. I will make the story BPI - When the time is right.
I would like to send out a missed thank you to Virginia and her husband.
Their video is quite good and I reccommend watching it.
One other thank you, well actually theres many, XENUTV, ptsc, Gegg Huggard, dARCY, Jeff J, Beverly, Sue M (Bat) and of course No User (lol). Your work is appreciated.
And my last point is to the poster "barb", I do know that there was plenty of work done against Scn. before the LMT was formed, that had made great head roads into exposing Scn. I didn't mean to exclude anyone who has been hard at work for many years. For me, like I said I recently decided to leave and the LMT website videos, (& XENUTV videos), closed me. That's all.
Again, late, tired, spelling... well you get it.
Thank you again.
MIA - Finally, I'll have happy holidays.
